voters among those in the minority they don't actually gain the majority of groups for a candidate majority rule prevails spread until that point every vote  counted the same but it's not right the case out of georgia where a vote did british depending on geography but there's none of that in this case so i'm struggling to find out where the bhushan comes from even it is not rejecting the analysis centers i suggest it is simply described here in a way that takes into account the fact that whether you are the majority you know today if you are going to is not going to count the president the united states and when you play ball that's only true if you were not successful in getting a good majority vote but you have every and minority and that is something that people in the real world take into account and understand that effects and whether their vote is going to be counted and it effects in terms of the st amendment  discrimination period theory in in effect is premised on the notion that we should get rid of plurality voting and wish to doubt the system of proportional representation but the supreme court has consistently rejected the plan this may now like our current system as a policy matter and they're free to air their views but they should they should focus their efforts on get there but a slate of submissions or a constitutional amendment or perhaps invidious discrimination then i mean that those cases but found an equal protection violation did so on the basis of deep seated racial animus for example white versus register consider the effect of a poll tax and i think what it referred to was the most restrictive voter registration provisions in the country that those kinds of provisions help to voters out of the process they the plaintiffs have won the popular vote in two out of the ten most recent presidential elections one of the plaintiffs is a former governor now running for president of the one of the defendant is a current governor argument we have to deal with on the premise of the argument yes but i mean to begin with i don't think the plaintiffs are better at any one else than predicting the results of the elections the fact that they may not have won the  party in my pinball in one area no matter how contrived and have fifty one percent of your prize in the other areas and then you throw a winner take all on top of that that fifty one percent is worth just as much as a ninety five percent so claim really rests on the notion that that the court should require massachusetts to adopt a proportional method of allocating some actors but the supreme court has said consistently that there is no constitutional right to proportional representation in the molehill case and i quote the court has strongly set its face against the claim however freezed that the constitution somehow guarantees proportional representation is no equal protection i wish in here where everyone has an unfettered opportunity to participate massachusetts system is eminently reasonable it's the system that forty eight states voting is the predominant method of deciding other actions in our system of democracy so again if the plane because they were displeased with that system they should focus their efforts on the other legislative or constitutional of discrimination is that your vote for it's described in the procedures used because only the majority takes all those doctrines would seem to apply to the green party's lack of representation  handles and best and that's what makes this different call on proportional representation in the legislature or one of the other kinds of issues are raised and what the what the court said in bush  but those cases concern when they use that language they're talking about invidious discrimination that creates barriers to participation and that's simply not the case here because cases are concerned with widespread societal discrimination manifest in things like a poll tax and literary literacy tests things that really prevented people from getting out to the polls that's just completely different from what we have here
