Vote Early And Vote Often: It Really Is Happening Legally!!!

From The Washington Examiner: :Arthur Furano voted early — five days before Election Day. And he voted often, flipping the lever six times for his favorite candidate. Furano cast multiple votes on the instructions of a federal judge and the U.S. Department of Justice as part of a new election system crafted to help boost Hispanic representation.
Voters in Port Chester, 25 miles northeast of New York City, are electing village trustees for the first time since the federal government alleged in 2006 that the existing election system was unfair. The election ends Tuesday and results are expected late Tuesday....Federal Judge Stephen Robinson said that violated the Voting Rights Act, and he approved a remedy suggested by village officials: a system called cumulative voting, in which residents get six votes each to apportion as they wish among the candidates. He rejected a government proposal to break the village into six districts, including one that took in heavily Hispanic areas" http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/blogs/beltway-confidential/Federal-judge-orders-cumulative-voting-to-increase-Hispanic-representation-96473104.html

Sadly, this a George W. Bush appointment.
Wait until 2012 when this will happen throughout the U.S. and for federal offices.
So much for 1 person 1 vote.
