Three Montana
corporations sued to bring the state into conformity with Citizens
United by overturning a 100-year-old state law, passed when copper and
other corporations supposedly held sway, that bans all corporate political
spending. The state’s Supreme Court refused to do this, citing Montana’s
supposedly unique susceptibility to corporate domination — an idea amusingly
discordant with the three corporations’ failure even to persuade the state
court to acknowledge the supremacy of the U.S. Supreme Court. Source: Washington Post.
