LAW/POLITICS: The Invisible Foot In Vermont
This Fox News report notes the heavy schedule of debates, and lack of spending on TV ads, in the Vermont gubernatorial race. What seems missing, to me, is any mention of Act 64, Vermont's stringent new campaign finance law, which was upheld by the Second Circuit in August. (This NRO analysis boldly predicted a reversal by the Supreme Court, although near as I can tell, no petition has been filed as yet). Are they not in effect yet this campaign cycle?
