So, if I’m reading this right, *all* residents including the white ones get 6 votes. What will the judge do if the percentages stay the same? For example, if the white candidates continue to win, only instead of them getting 1000 votes while the hispanic candidates get 500, now the white candidate gets 6000 votes, and the hispanic 3000?
I read this wrong - sorry ...
Let us assume 7 whites and 3 Latinos running [10000 vote electorate] ...
6 of the whites got 1100 votes, 1 got 400 votes ...
Each Latino got 1000 votes ...
6 whites win ...
New election - 6 votes each ...
If they all cast votes the way they did before, 6 whites win [each with 6600 votes] ...
The only way for Latinos to win is to substantially back only 2 candidates[each with 6601 votes, 1 with 4798] ...
More chance to win - less chance for Latino candidates to run ...
