Do let us know, Honkie (or Rock), when Approval will be out of the dark moist
mushroom growing rooms and into the minds fo the American public.
Would Rock flinch or pause, if asked to put online an artists depiction of
an Approval ballot paper that shows what the paper looks like when there are
at least 34 (or 25 or more) candidates competing ?.
Last time I checked your website, Mr Legrand, there was no example showing
what an Approval ballot paper looked like in an election where very many
candidates were standing for a single position or seat.
My hypothesis is that Rocky has a darkness-preferring movement that would not
show a simple ballot paper (e.g. an artists rendition of an Approval ballot
paper).
Can readers here supply a handdrawn picture (implying that supporting the
Approval campaign would be a ghastly mistake) to Rock for inclusion in the
new 'deemed by IRS to be charitable' website ?.
What are the criteria that will allow readers of this mailing list to check
that the whatever-it-was movement, will be a success ?.
If the contest is not close, and voters lack good information on the
opinions or votes of others in the election, and if there are many/enough
candidates, then Approval would be over some limit that politicians would
set, saying how much allocating of power, is unjustly large.
Certainly when the topic is total ignorance for the public, then it can be
very worse with the CVD, partly since they have many comments for various
cities.
