A surprising legal principle from conservative Supreme Court gun cases could help restore the right to vote as a first-class constitutional right. Drawing on his experience arguing his fifth case before the SCOTUS, Marc Elias shows how voting has been wrongly treated as a second-class right—subject to balancing tests and state convenience—while other rights receive strict protection, and argues that the Constitution, history, and modern technology all support stronger, uniform safeguards for free and fair elections. Watch for deep insight into the US legal system, legal principles, and how we can strengthen the democratic process.
