Did anyone actually read the article (and I admit that I am the pot calling the kettle black because I often post without reading)? There are six trustee seats and the voters cast 6 votes. But instead of the typical ward method (1 trustee per district), staggered seat dates (so each of the six seats is subject to a separate vote), or even 6 votes on an at large list this judge has forced a cumulative voting system where you can use many of your votes for a single representative if you really, really want him. I'm not sure how fair such a system is, and I certainly don't like that it was imposed judicially instead of legislatively, but this isn't the end of the world.
Although the village of about 30,000 residents is nearly half Hispanic,
How many are citizens of voting age versus how many are children, merely legal residents or even illegals. If only 2,000 of those 15,000 Hispanics are voting age citizens, then it is no surprise that they don't win elections.
