DARYN KAGAN, CNN ANCHOR: A lovely morning in Washington, D.C. That was the Washington Monument there. That is where, two days from now, the nation's highest court will step directly into the spotlight that is aimed at the nation's election process. Mary Cheh, a law professor at George Washington University Law School, joins us from Washington with her perspective on the Supreme Court's involvement. Good morning. Good to see you.</s>MARY CHEH, GEORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY LAW SCHOOL: Good morning.</s>KAGAN: First of all, from all the years that you've been watching the Supreme Court, how surprised are you that they've now said they're going to release an audio copy and we'll actually be able to hear what happens inside the high court on Friday?</s>CHEH: Well, that may sound like a small movement to release an audiotape, but for the Supreme Court that's actually quite significant, because they've been very resistant to any sort of public, contemporaneous or soon-thereafter accounting of the arguments in front of them. So it's pretty big.</s>KAGAN: And professor, we'll ask you to stand by just a second and stay with us. We want to show our viewers live pictures now from Tallahassee. This is the committee meeting taking place at the state legislature of Florida, deciding whether they need a special session coming up this weekend.
