Voice of America: Jonathan Adler, the Johan Verheij Memorial Professor of Law, said Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito’s decision not to recuse himself from election-related cases is justified by the traditional understanding of when recusal is required. “As traditionally understood, it requires more than a suspicion or belief about the justice’s ideological orientation or political orientation, but rather a certain sort of bias about the precise issue before the court or the particular parties before the court,” Adler said.
