Supreme Court rules in major election case

The Supreme Court issued a ruling in a major election law case stemming from a dispute in North Carolina. The justices rejected a controversial theory that would have given state lawmakers unfettered power to set the rules for federal elections in their states. Evan Caminker, who co-authored the amicus brief submitted on behalf of the Conference of Chief Justices about the North Carolina elections case, joined CBS News to talk about the ruling.

Democratic legislators say the changes are meant to thwart a federal lawsuit filed last week. North Carolina Democratic Gov. Roy Cooper joins "America Decides" to discuss the future of abortion rights in his state.
