Side issue: I fly my home country and US flag side by side because I haven't earned the right YET to be considered USAmerican. I can't vote because I legally immigrated, sat outside the country until my paperwork was processed, agreed to a higher standard of laws that citizens, and have a waiting period of 7 years.

I love my new country, and will stand shoulder to shoulder in defense, but this vote is an atrocity.

Please explain why you think it is an atrocity? That's a pretty strong word.

Another topic meant to start right wingers screaming. How shocking on SubSim *Rolleyes*

Its ALL voters and the only thing it does is increase the total number of votes overall. Costs more to count but hardly controversial.

It's extremely controversial, and should be.

Any voting system designed to affect a particular voting outcome is WRONG, period.

Nonsense. The point of voting is for the people to decide the outcome. If an election process is designed to produce particular winners, it's anti-democratic, period.

There is no such thing as "more representative" based on SURNAME.

The notion that people are better represented by people of a particular color or surname is racist, and insane, frankly.
