effective date machinations combined with veto stuff
TOTSOP — NO HACK exec officer veto machinations — a vestige of the 1066 Brit DARK AGE regime.
RCV FATAL defects – see Utah story.
WZ –
The EC gerrymander can get lots worse if more rotted regimes add State EC gerrymander districts — esp *special* gerrymander pack/crack NON-contiguous areas.
Again – the 5 SCOTUS math morons gave OK for 25 or less pct ANTI-Democracy TOTAL gerrymanders in the RUCHO JUNK OP on 27 June 2019.
Major EVIL if some contingent stuff happens in Nov 2020 – depending on which left/right gangsters control state laws —
Prez candidate gets overall plurality – but NOT in ALL gerrymander areas.
IE – totally subvert/pervert 12th Amdt.
