The Nation Defends Fusion

Katrina vanden Heuvel has this article in The Nation, defending New York’s fusion law. The article says that few legislators want to repeal fusion, but it also says if Governor Andrew Cuomo wants to ban fusion in New York, he can probably prevail, because Democrats have a majority in both houses of the legislature now and they generally accede to his wishes.

  1. Cuomo — another Stalin/Mao – with his control of the robot RED communist Donkeys in the NY Legislature ???

  2. Fusion Voting in single-winner districts, anywhere, is a bad idea and could lead to a one-party system (though I haven’t done the math myself).

    We do know that Fusion is not pure proportional representation.

    I apologize to all those readers who have complianed about DemoRep, mine and other’s use of the followup to communicate but we all appreciate using the medium to convey the phenomenon in politics that inspires us.

  3. Is the know-it-all media even more brain dead STUPID than incumbents regarding REAL Democracy reforms ??? —

    PR and AppV — pending Condorcet.
