Hunter’s two-way stardom is rare; not since Michigan’s Charles Woodson in 1997 has a Heisman winner played on both sides of the ball. In addition to the Heisman, Hunter this season was also named as a finalist for the awards given to college football’s top receiver and top defensive player. As a wide receiver, Hunter caught 92 passes to lead the Big 12 Conference and rank fifth in the country. Hunter, who has said he will enter the NFL draft following Colorado’s season, began his college career by upending expectations. Hunter is Colorado’s second Heisman winner, joining running back Rashaan Salaam in 1994.

Ohio was one of three states that had warned the Democratic Party that Mr. Biden could be left off the ballot because the Democratic National Convention would take place after certification deadlines for presidential nominees. Election officials in Washington State also signaled that their state would accept a provisional certification of Mr. Biden’s nomination. Charles Lutvak, a spokesman for the Biden campaign, said that Mr. Biden would be on the ballot in all 50 states. Republicans in Ohio have said that passing the ban on foreign donations is the price that Democrats will have to pay to ensure that Mr. Biden is on the ballot in the state. “If Ohio bars Biden from the ballot, the Supreme Court should order him back on the ballot just like it did with Trump in Colorado,” Ms. Torres-Spelliscy said.

It usually takes the Supreme Court about three months after an argument to issue a decision. The biggest rulings tend not to arrive until late June, no matter how early in the term the cases were argued. But the case argued Thursday is different, and the nation can expect a prompt ruling. The question, Mr. Trump’s lawyers told the justices, “urgently require this court’s prompt resolution.”Lawyers for the six Colorado voters who challenged Mr. Trump’s eligibility asked the court to rule by Sunday, the day before the state mails primary ballots. But the court may well act before the Super Tuesday on March 5, when Colorado and 14 other state hold their presidential primaries.

☆ Making salary ranges public may shrink pay gaps but slow wage growth
▼ + stars: | 2023-01-24 | by ( Carlos Waters | In Carloswaters | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

The rise of pay transparency laws in the United States could change how the nation's workers negotiate their annual salaries in today's fast-changing labor market. As layoffs mount in the face of recession fears, the increased number of job seekers will be seeing more positions in states that mandate pay ranges be publicly listed. The rise of these pay transparency laws could boost wages for minorities and women, who may be paid less than their peers. Nuances of rising pay transparency were highlighted in a report Pakzad-Hurson co-authored in the National Bureau of Economic Research. Watch the video above to learn more about the rise and potential implications of pay transparency.
