Hosch Professor & Meigs Distinguished Teaching Professor Lori A. Ringhand, who is an election law expert, offers insight into the U.S. Supreme Court's recent Moore v. Harper decision. “The Supreme Court's recent decision in Moore v. Harper puts to rest some of the more extreme claims made in the 2020 presidential election. It also ensures that states, like Georgia, that protect elections and voting rights in their state constitutions can have confidence that decisions about what those provisions mean will continue to be decided by judges within the state, who are best situated to understand state law."
