The Los Angeles Times has this op-ed by Joe Mathews about California’s top-two open primary experience. Thanks to Rick Hasen for the link.
Also see this story in Capitol Weekly, by Amy Wong. And see this Marin Independent Journal story by Brad Breithaupt. Both of these two news stories focus on the exclusion of minor parties from the November ballot.
What media pundits and polisci profs in STONE AGE CA have heard about P.R. ???
One P.R. system = Total Votes / Total Seats = EQUAL votes required for each seat winner via pre-election CANDIDATE rank order lists.
Excess votes down, loser votes up.
ALL voters elect a legislator = both majority rule aka DEMOCRACY and minority representation.
Too complex for the armies of New Age math MORONS in CA and the rest of Western Civilization ???
