Susan Crawford: “If at least three of the justices decide that the case…”

“Lawyers can present petitions from cases that have gone through the lower courts asking the Supreme Court to take up a case, and the Supreme Court votes. And If at least three of the justices decide that the case presents issue of statewide importance that merits consideration by the top court, then the Supreme Court's going to hear that case. So you see the Wisconsin Supreme Court making decisions in many cases that affect our most basic rights and freedoms in our democracy, our right to vote.” (05:19–05:35)
