Good find Sky ... a lot to read, but good at pointing out a few of our voting deficiencies.

May I add one observation that I find hard to believe, but true ...

Since the under 21 age group was allowed to vote since June 1970

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twenty...s_Constitution

Quote:
The Twenty-sixth Amendment (Amendment XXVI) to the United States Constitution prohibits the states and the federal government from using age as a reason for denying the right to vote to citizens of the United States who are at least eighteen years old. The drive to lower the voting age from 21 to 18 grew across the country during the 1960s
No election has ever been over turned by this younger age group of 21 and under ... what I mean is that if all of their votes were to be counted for the losing party ... that party still would not have won.
