Supreme Court Reverses Nebraska Boyd Citizenship Ruling

Chief Justice Fuller delivers the decision with most justices concurring though a line of reasoning is split. The ruling overturns Nebraska’s finding that Boyd was not a citizen and that Thayer held the seat, clarifying citizenship ties and governor succession in the state.
