A Montana state law provides that a “corporation may not make . . . an expenditure in connection with a candidate or a political committee that supports or opposes a candidate or a political party.” Mont. Code Ann. §13–35–227(1) (2011).

The question presented in this case is whether the holding of Citizens United applies to the Montana state law. There can be no serious doubt that it does.

The petition for certiorari is granted. The judgment of the Supreme Court of Montana is reversed.
It is so ordered.

JUSTICE BREYER, with whom JUSTICE GINSBURG, JUSTICE SOTOMAYOR, and JUSTICE KAGAN join, dissenting.

“Today, without a hearing, the Supreme Court summarily struck down a 100-year-old Montana state law barring corporate contributions to political campaigns. The five Justices who two and a half years ago opened the floodgates to unlimited and unaccountable corporate spending on federal political campaigns with their decision in Citizens United, now have taken another step to break down the last public safeguards preventing corporate megaphones from drowning out the voices of hardworking Americans.

“Montana’s law was enacted 100 years ago when Montana’s citizens got fed up with the massive bribery and corruption that enabled the ‘Copper Kings’ to dominate not only elections but all political debate in Montana. In today’s decision, the Court ignored this concrete evidence of corruption that led the State of Montana to enact its law a century ago, as well as precedent that has long been on the books in many states finding no constitutional concern with laws limiting corporate contributions.

Well you can dream that Kennedy, Ginsburg and Breyer retire during Obama´s second term. That could be 5 justices appointed by him. That is what the far right should fear most. Of course you can even have a wet dream about some other elderly justices following Breitbart, wherever he may be. (Edited)

If Obama loses in 2012:
Kennedy and possibly Scalia retire
If Obama wins in 2012:
Ginsburg and possibly Kennedy or Breyer retire

I strongly suspect that Justice Scalia has already issued orders that in the event of a dehabiliting stroke, his clerks are to strap him to a la-z-boy and wheel his ass into the courtroom. Those orders will lapse when a Republican lives in the White House.

A amendment to the Constitution is needed. Will it be possible to get one before the government is completely in the control of the oligarchs.?

If, as Justice Scalia states in his dissent in AZ v U.S., states have the right to exclude any class of people from living in their state, why does the same "sovereign" not have the right to pass laws limiting corporate donations in elections?
