- Prohibition by this section of use of public information for "other
political campaign purposes", as applied in this case, placed an impermissible
burden on protected speech and is struck down for being overbroad. Provision
in this statute which prohibits use of information for harrassment purposes
is held to be so vague as to be constitutionally infirm and is therefore struck
down. Fowler v. Neb. Account. and Disclosure Comm., 213 Neb. 462, 330 N.W.2d
136 (1983).
