Here is the second brief on the merits, in the U.S. Supreme Court case on Arizona public funding. Both briefs that have been filed so far are opposed to the Arizona system of giving extra public funding to certain candidates who have well-funded opponents. The case is Arizona Free Enterprise Club’s Freedom Club PAC v Bennett, 10-238. The briefs in defense of the existing state policy will be filed next month. The case will be argued on March 28.

Separate is NOT equal.
Brown v. Bd of Ed 1954

Do Donkey / Elephant taxpayers want ANY of their taxes being given to Elephant / Donkey candidates for ANY reason whatever ???
