In addition to starting on the path to be a lawyer, Kim Kardashian plays one on TV, in Hulu’s All’s Fair. I watched two episodes, so you don’t have to watch any. One of these is not like the other… I go into every review with an open mind, but it’s been a challenge to avoid the negative news surrounding All’s Fair.

A single ticket, or décimo, costing €20 (£17), is worth €400,000 (£349,484) if it bears the winning number, in this case 79432.

Justice, Democracy, and Law is a recurring series by Edward B. Foley that focuses on election law and the relationship of law and democracy. Please note that the views of outside contributors do not reflect the official opinions of SCOTUSblog or its staff. Redistricting law is an utter mess. One major culprit is the Supreme Court’s 2019 decision in Rucho v. Common Cause, which held, 5-4, that addressing partisan gerrymandering is beyond the reach of federal courts. One might think that once the judiciary has washed its hands of a topic, at least there’s no more ill that can come from that…
