ARIZONA ET AL. v. INTER TRIBAL COUNCIL OF ARIZONA, INC., ET AL.

The Supreme Court handed down one decision related to election law today. You can find it here.

Justice Scalia wrote the opinion for a 7-2 majority of the Court. The majority found that federal law, the National Voter Registration Act, preemptions state law in this area. The Arizona law required proof of citizenship prior to registering to vote.

More to come.
