Thanks Pittsburgh!!

Thanks to everyone at Buchanan Ingersoll and Rooney law firm who put together yesterday’s event and book signing in Pittsburgh.  I didn’t get a chance to spend as much time as I would have liked with everyone but thanks to everyone who came. 

Particular thanks to Tabella who has kept ELC filled with updated information in my absence – especially the earthquake that is the Georgia challenge to Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act as part of the redistricting lawsuit they filed.  Now three states – Florida, Arizona and Georgia – are all making a statewide challenge to Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act.  More importantly, they are all going to Court instead of the DOJ for approval of redistricting plans.  This is a main theme of my book Injustice – that states and counties should go to court for approval of election law changes instead of submitting to DOJ.  Federal Judges are more impartial and more likely to follow the law than the characters featured in Injustice.  Glad people are taking the alternative route.
