PER CURIAM:
The Libertarian Party of Virginia, Matthew Mosley,
Wilbur Wood, William Redpath, Catherine Barrett, and Robert
Benedict appeal the district court’s order granting the Virginia
State Board of Elections’ motion to dismiss. After reviewing
the record and the district court’s opinion, we agree that the
Appellants’ suit is barred by the Eleventh Amendment and
therefore affirm. See Libertarian Party of Va. v. Va. St. Bd.
of Elections, No. 1:10-cv-00615-LMB-TCB (E.D. Va. Sept. 16,
2010). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and
legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials
before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
AFFIRMED
