Really . Can you run through the current party affiliations of the village trusties(not all of whom, were even elected), would you like to widen it out to county level for a clearer picture of local party politics.

That sounds like an old traditional system. But they changed that system didn't they and they changed it to affect the outcomes so that change must have been wrong eh.

Exactly, its a sop to the complaint that was lodged, if they had re drawn the boundaries to make sure one district was almost bound to elect the peuto ricans main choice there would have been something to moan about, but it wasn't so there isn't.
I would have thought all these people going on about fair representation and the sanctity of elections would be pleased that the voters can now have a chance to reject all 6 trusties each election intead of being limited to just two.

This article just makes me sick to my stomach. It's like the minority runs this country. It's really disturbing and some of the laws that have passed that allow crap like this to go on just amazes me! :nope:

I just wonder just how much underhanded corruption has allowed much of this nonsense to pass and become law? :hmmm:

Then look at the issue not the article.

Laws that allow this are a direct result of America allowing some amazingly disturbing voting laws to have operated.

An update... plans to 'expand'

Any voting system that gives more votes to certain people should not be allowed. Obviously.
