The LA Times neglects to mention that the county and others have already sued over the initiative's alleged illegality β€” twice β€” and the ballot measure won both times.

Those who have been following our work over the past few years will know that we had the privilege of representing the student plaintiff, B.B., in the district court.

The court held today that elementary school students cannot be stripped of their First Amendment rights simply because of their young age. Applying π‘‡π‘–π‘›π‘˜π‘’π‘Ÿ 𝑣. 𝐷𝑒𝑠 π‘€π‘œπ‘–π‘›π‘’π‘ , the Ninth Circuit vacated the district court’s grant of summary judgment and remanded the case for further proceedings.

It is a powerful decision vindicating the constitutional rights of students everywhere, and we are thrilled to see this result for B.B.

Major Supreme Court victory for election integrity.

Today, the U.S. Supreme Court held that candidates have standing to challenge unlawful vote-counting rules in federal courtβ€”before an election is over.

That matters to everyone who cares about lawful elections.

For years, courts dismissed challenges by saying: β€œYou can’t sue unless you can prove the rule will change the outcome.” Federal courts would force litigants into state courts that refused to act or ran out the clock. That standard kept illegal election practices insulated from review until it was too late.

No longer.

The Court recognized a basic truth:
Elections are not legitimate if votes are counted unlawfullyβ€”even if the margin is large.

This decision means:

Illegal vote-counting rules can be challenged early, not after the damage is done

Courts can no longer hide behind technical standing barriers

Election integrity claims get heard on the merits

This is exactly the kind of structural accountability the Constitution demandsβ€”and exactly the work the Lex Rex Institute exists to do.

More to come. This ruling will shape election litigation nationwide.

Watch a new documentary on Epoch TV featuring Alexander Haberbush, President of LRI!

"'Adversity: Stories of Critical Race Theory' exposes what may be going on in your children's classes, in the name of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.

And while many will still say it's all about race, there are much more sinister origins behind the applied theory that has taken hold of American institutions beyond American campuses."
