The Supreme Court's jurisprudence on political parties is rooted in
an incomplete story. Parties are, like voluntary clubs,
associations of individuals that are represented by a singular
organization. However, as political science has long understood,
they are much more than this. Parties are also the voters who
choose and support their candidates, the elected officials who
govern, the activists and volunteers who contribute their time and
energy, and the individual and organizational donors who open their
wallets. Unfortunately, the Court's framework for understanding
America's two-party system has largely ignored this broader
conception of political parties. The result has been a distortion
of the true nature of the two-party system, and a body of deeply
inconsistent and contradictory constitutional case law. From
primaries to campaign finance, partisan gerrymandering to ballot
access, law and politics scholar Wayne Batchis interrogates,
scrutinizes, and offers a proposed solution to this problematic
jurisprudence.
