I've read the ruling. So could you if you wanted to. It's on the court's website. The opinion is very well written and thought out. It is a victory for conservative principles, the rule of law, the Constitution, and the right of the voters to select their representatives.

When was the ruling to which you refer made? It is not relevant to this issue, nor is it considered controlling precedent.

"It's on the court's website." now.
Well, now that it is available I'll give it a look.

A ruling on "inhabitant" that was unanimously upheld by the Fifith Circuit.

" The record shows that Secretary Cheney has both a physical presence within the state of Wyoming and the intent that Wyoming be his place of habitation. It is undisputed that he was born, raised, educated, and married in Wyoming and represented the state as a Member of Congress for six terms. After additional public service, he eventually moved to Dallas, Texas to become the Chief Executive Officer of Halliburton Corporation ("Halliburton"). On or about July 21, 2000 Secretary Cheney declared his intent to return to his home state of Wyoming. On or after that date, and before today, he traveled to Wyoming and registered to vote there, requested withdrawal of his Texas voter registration, voted in Wyoming in two elections, obtained a Wyoming driver's license (which, in turn, resulted in the voiding of his Texas license), and sold his Texas house. He advised the United States Secret Service that his primary residence is his home in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, and he retired from employment with Halliburton. "

The district court decision was on December 1, 2000, and the Fifth Circuit heard argument and entered a one-line affirmance on December 7th: "All requested relief is DENIED."
