State supreme court justices play a critical role in defending your rights and freedoms, which is why the election happening in Georgia right now is so important.

Make sure you have a plan to vote for Jen Jordan and Miracle Rankin, the only two candidates in the race with strong records of standing up for all Georgians.

Early voting is already underway and Election Day is May 19th. Find out where you can vote at https://t.co/OHJnsHnuiB.

SCOTUS's awful ruling in Callais makes state courts more important than ever. GA has two SSC seats up on 5/19. The outcome holds huge consequences re gerrymandering, election subversion, and repro freedom. @benwikler @LavoraBarnes and I discuss why: https://t.co/pvSTVc2coe

I can't wait to learn why the best jurisdiction to challenge the democratic party's nomination process is actually Amarillo texas

Happy Aja Day to those who celebrate

This changes nothing; central Jersey still isn’t real.

*Third* victory in the OH Supreme Court on state legislative districts. Grateful to the voters and advocates who keep pushing on for democracy in Ohio, and as ever to my colleagues at @EliasLawGroup.

“The General Assembly violates the North Carolina Constitution when it deprives a voter of his or her right to substantially equal voting power on the basis of partisan affiliation.”

Huge win with @LaliMadduri @GrahamWhite__ @EliasLawGroup

[Spencer Klein @SpencerWKlein]

Also, in a tradition that I hope will be repeated many times, I'm going to start commemorating wins with Steely Dan songs (see cover photo). This one works for the two Ohio cases, since it roughly tracks the Court's orders in both cases:

Another huge win in OH! So proud of the team at @EliasLawGroup, who in this case managed to do a year's worth of work in about 3 weeks, and do a damn good job of it too. Lucky to call these people my coworkers and friends.

Another victory in OH! From the opinion: "Gerrymandering is the antithetical perversion of representative democracy." Proud to work with this @EliasLawGroup team&honored to represent Ohioans who fought for fair representation.

@CaseyBerk If it's any consolation, my Property Law professor thought this right up until he had to, like, teach Property Law.

This victory belongs to the voters in Ohio who wore their shoes thin organizing to get redistricting reform approved by huge margins in 2015. Proud of our team at @EliasLawGroup for making sure that the Court gave those new amendments meaning!

I want to congratulate my North Jersey constituent Dr. Oz on his run for US Senate in Pennsylvania. I’m sure this fully genuine candidacy will capture the hearts of Pennsylvanians.

[Megan Coyne @megancoyne23]

I know you’ve never won a re-elect so I’m sure you can’t relate, but I’m feeling fantastic!

[Spencer Klein @SpencerWKlein]

Watching these Commission hearings, I've been absolutely floored by how much Ohioans have shown up and spoken out for fair districts, often traveling long distances on workdays to make their voices heard. So excited to be on the team at @EliasLawGroup fighting for them in court!
