The electoral college has nothing to do with anything except choosing the Prez.
A local public referendum has nothing to do with legislators, it's direct democracy - ask the people and if they say yes (and the measure is legal and constitutional) then the answer is yes.

| see the electorial comment was just to show that most people don't know how the government even functions half the time. But i agree it is sad that when the majority speaks that is not good enough for the local area. It's shown every single day on all lvls of government that when something does not go the way that one side wants they will appeal it up the chain till it goes thier way and claim justice was done then the other side will go back to appealing it all until they find some judge to side with them so they can say justice was done. just really really tired of judges legislating from the bench. |
