Absentee Ballot. The Second Circuit reversed the District Court's decision dismissing a complaint claiming that the New York State Board of Elections violated the plaintiffs' Fifth Amendment rights by failing to provide for absentee ballots in elections for polical party county committees, while providing them for all other kinds of elections. The Court remanded the case to the District Court with instructions to enter judment in favor of the plaintiffs.

The decision in Price v. New York State Board of Elections can be found here.
