Professor Richard L. Hasen is the Chancellor’s Professor of Law and Political Science at the University of California, Irvine. Hasen is a nationally-recognized expert in election law and campaign finance regulation, and is co-author of a leading casebook on election law.
From 2001-2010, he served (with Dan Lowenstein) as founding co-editor of the quarterly peer-reviewed publication, Election Law Journal. He is the author of more than 80 articles on election law issues, published in numerous journals including the Harvard Law Review (forthcoming 2012), Stanford Law Review and Supreme Court Review. He was elected to the American Law Institute in 2009.
His op-eds and commentaries have appeared in many publications, including The New York Times, The Washington Post, Politico, and Slate. Hasen also writes the often-quoted Election Law Blog.
The book examines the increasingly partisan world of election administration since the 2000 Florida debacle. To prevent the next election meltdown, Hasen says we must take our elections out of the hands of partisan game-players and truly reform the system.
