Re: Weighted voting

IT HAS NO PLACE IN OUR ELECTIONS

Some examples of legitimate uses:

In a corporate setting, a stockholder with more shares is able to make more of an impact on company policy and decision-making than a stockholder with fewer shares.

On a condo or HOA board, someone who owns multiple residences in the building totaling up to 10,000 square feet is able to influence decisions more significantly than the person with one 1,000 square feet apartment.

At a charitable organization, the person who made a one-time $100 donation is given less influence than the person who routinely gives $500,000 each year.

I don’t see why it is even legal at all. One vote counts more than another vote. I. Do. Not. Understand. why this is not illegal.

Or Archie Griffin, who gets two Heisman ballots during each season's election as a two-time winner of the trophy.
