You've been dismissing them just because they like wide open spaces and live near "open tracts."<BR/>But they do count.<BR/>And they know that you've been dissing them. <BR/>And they will have their say. <BR/>And when it happens the elites will be right back where they started - playing with their love beads in lalaland.Dan Ciruccihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18362893049097966904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7458724113457799001.post-925346636191172932008-11-21T08:33:00.000-05:002008-11-21T08:33:00.000-05:00Wide, open tracts of land in sparsely-populated co...Wide, open tracts of land in sparsely-populated counties is hardly the same as millions of individuals.

Do you think that every county should have a single vote in the electoral college? That is, should a county of 500 souls, like Petroleum County, Montana, have the same number of votes in the electoral college as Philadelphia County, with a population of over 1.4 million?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
