Campaign Cash Mirrors Ohio Supreme Court Rulings

Interesting article from the NY Times examining the correlation between campaign contributions and court rulings.

From the article:

“An examination of the Ohio Supreme Court by The New York Times found that its justices routinely sat on cases after receiving campaign contributions from the parties involved or from groups that filed supporting briefs. On average, they voted in favor of contributors 70 percent of the time. Justice O’Donnell voted for his contributors 91 percent of the time, the highest rate of any justice on the court.“
