Ballot Access News
On July 20, the Second Circuit refused to enjoin a New York campaign finance law that lets individuals give more donations to a qualified party than an unqualified party. Upstate Jobs Party v Kosinski, 18-1586. The three judges were Reena Raggi, Peter W. Hall, and Debra Ann Livingston, all Bush Jr. appointees.

The six-page order
makes it clear that the panel thinks the lawsuit has merit, and that
there are problems with the New York law. But they said there would be
no useful purpose in an injunction, partly because the Upstate Jobs
Party doesn’t have any candidates this year for statewide office.
