Foes get to fight campaign finance law again

The East Valley Tribune

Opponents of the state’s public campaign finance system are going to get another chance to try to void provisions of the law which can hurt candidates supported by special interests.

Reversing its own earlier decision, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said state Treasurer Dean Martin can challenge a part of the Citizens Clean Elections Act.

The judges said the fact that Martin has said he will run again in 2010 means his challenge to the law did not evaporate after he was elected last year.
