Over on the Columbia Law Review's online Sidebar, Chicago professors Adam Cox and Thomas Miles are involved in a debate about their January 2008 CLR article "Judging The Voting Rights Act." In that piece, Thomas and Adam write that they provided "the first systematic evidence that judicial ideology and race are closely related to findings of liability in voting rights cases." In so doing, they called into question the core findings of Ellen D. Katz & Anna Baldwin's report, "Documenting Discrimination in Voting: Judicial Findings Under Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act Since 1982;" Katz and Baldwin responded to Cox and Miles with a reply in Sidebar, and Cox and Miles have responded to that reply with one of their own.
Great article, I am really curious to read some other attorneys thoughts on the subject.
