The Supreme Court rules that the Constitution mandates winner-by-plurality. Also, Hillary is now president.


quote:

Poliquin's lawsuit also asserts that ranked-choice voting violates the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment because voters who pick just one candidate in a race have less say in the outcome than those who rank multiple candidates.

The Supreme Court rules that all elections are illegitimate, since a person can choose to skip a race the same way that can choose not to rank choices, having less say in the races they skip.

I still sometimes grab the album link first. Imgur's not terribly intuitive, I think.

It's gonna be great when a re-vote turns NC9 blue and makes the Republicans go under 200.

Nice Democracy ya got there Arizona. Didn't want to vote for McSally for Senate in November? Tough poo poo, you get her anyway.

From an FPTP perspective, okay, but if I look at it from a quasi-proportional representation perspective, I can't have a problem with this.

To be fair, they're talking about a rump Federal District around just the federal buildings. Though in that case, a 23rd Amendment repeal should be a unanimous no-brainer.

I still don't know how the Constitution prevents it, considering lots of states were created out of federal land.

Doing a quick check it sounds like any law that makes most of DC its own state or part of Maryland, but excises a small region around the white house and capitol to remain a federal district, would give that tiny district three electors in presidential elections as per the 23rd amendment. Cleaning up that situation would require a constitutional amendment I assume

Yes, you'd need to repeal the 23rd. In the meantime, the president and Congress can just pick symbolic electors, since the Constitution doesn't mandate that you have to have a popular vote for them.

The 27th didn't have a stated deadline as part of it at all, as far as I know.

God that is so infuriating to hear about fairfax. What's the line of succession where Lee Carter gets to be governor, since apparently everyone in the top spots is a loving chode

Well, Northam can appoint him LG and then resign. That most definitely won't happen, but you can dream.
