I live in LA. I use to live in a much smaller county- Solano. In both counties, when I voted, my vote was counted as the same. It was one vote and that one vote went into the grand total that decided who would win California. With this sham the rethugs are tryong to pull, it makes the votes of people in smaller, more rural areas count for more because how a small group of people in a rural area votes are now worth more than mine. Each congressional district will get one vote. SO, in LA, where there are millions of voters, we are all getting one shared congressional vote where people who live in the much smaller Solano (where I use to live) who might have only three-quarters of the votes somehow wind up with the same result- one congressional vote.
Also, why change the way we tally votes now? Is it because the republicans haven't taken California since reagan? Hmmm... seems like if they can't win by the rules, they simply change the rules.
And, on a whole other note, I consider this a waste of taxpayers money as I do not think it will hold up in court. Just like they're other waste of time Parental Notification petition. How many times are they going to try that one before they jsut give up?
