  1. Expect a zillion briefs from all of the usual left/right extremist suspects.

    For newer folks-

    a State/local legislative body exists ONLY because all of the Electors/Voters can not meet in person and vote on stuff – bills, resolutions, etc.

    The remedy since the 1840s (repeat 1840s) has been P.R.

    — regardless of all the hacks and morons who love pack/crack AREA gerrymanders and minority rule —

    1/2 or less votes x 1/2 rigged districts = 1/4 or less CONTROL = Oligarchy.
