In 2000, the Center and Emery Cuti Brinckerhoff & Abady successfully represented Senator John McCain and his New York supporters in challenging ballot access laws for the New York Republican presidential primary. The ruling guaranteed the first fair Republican presidential primary in New York’s history.

The Center filed suit on behalf of Michigan voters to stop the Michigan Secretary of State and Director of Elections from proceeding with the State’s plan for handling provisional ballots in the upcoming November 2 election.
