The Ninth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals ruled unconstitutional a Washington state law restricting political action committees from taking in donations of $5000 or more in the last three weeks of an election.
The state argued that the law was intended to protect voters allowed to mail their ballots 18 days before the election. -db
