Hell, it doesn’t even matter that the majority of voters don’t REALLY matter anyway.
Once those ‘magic numbers’ tally correctly, the rest of the voting public might as well just turn around and go home.
We see enough of it where some prospects drop out because of Iowa and New H., as if their ‘gotta be 1st’ votes are a litmus test for the rest of the country.
Sorry, but neither party is interested in the People, nor fair and honest elections. Else, they would be ensuring ALL People are heard: single day voting across the board (no pandering, no funny-voting), random debate positions (not just ‘popular’ vs. ‘popular’. And, I mean DEBATES, not the crap these days), ensuring donations/etc., allow lobbying but only those that can pull the lever get to donate (no unions, no PACs, no international, no..)
Nor does the Judiciary, knowing where their bread is buttered, with their blind-eye to ‘Equal Under the Law’ (Congress exempted), NEVER citing the Constitution (merely 1910+ ‘precedent’) or the latest BS of ‘standing’
Voting is about controlling the population. It has little to do with selecting candidates and pretty much nothing to do with determining political policy.
