Scholarly Journal Publishes Article on How California Would be Changed if it Used Proportional Representation

Posted on July 21, 2011 by admin

Political science professor Michael S. Latner and Kyle Roach have an article in the California Journal of Politics and Policy titled, “Mapping the Consequences of Electoral Reform”, which can be seen at this link. It sets forth the likely consequences if California used proportional representation for the lower house of its legislature, using sixteen 5-member districts. Thanks to Rob Richie for the link.

Gerrymanders/single districts = Monarchy/Oligarchy = ANTI-Democracy — nonstop since 4 July 1776 in the U.S.A.

P.R. = DEMOCRACY — both majority rule and minority representation.

Way too difficult to understand for the SCOTUS math morons and lots of profs.

It makes an erroneous claim that independent candidates are frequent in California.
