#ELB: Breaking: “Legal Team Led by David Boies and LULAC Files Lawsuits Challenging Winner-Take-All Approach to Selecting Electors in Presidential Elections” http://electionlawblog.org/?p=97652
Now updated with a link to the complaint filed against Massachusetts .#ELB: Breaking: “Legal Team Led by David Boies and LULAC Files Lawsuits Challenging Winner-Take-All Approach to Selecting Electors in Presidential Elections” http://electionlawblog.org/?p=97652
The complaint claiming that the winner-take-all by state allocation of electoral college votes is unconstitutional (despite a 1969 Supreme Court summary affirmance suggesting otherwise) is .... wait for it..... Bush v. Gore.
So we've pretty much been doing it wrong since the nation's Founding? Is that it?
Is that a serious question? Has it not occurred to you that election dynamics have matured over the years? Cities have gotten considerably larger. Society is better educated. Civil rights was hardly a concept. Time to take the weighted average off and balance the scale.
Yes, I was trying to get a better understanding of their argument. Some of us use Twitter to learn.
Understood. Elections have such serious consequences. I am more focused on the Parkland kids, having lived in South Florida a very long time. #standwiththekids
For those who don’t want to slog thru the complaint, what are they seeking by way of remedy—apportion electors by congressional district?
California and New York Dems thank them. (Not really.)
seems like something like that really can't just be done in one state but do wonder how 2016 works out using their mechanism
Have they released a copies of the complaints?
