If there's an authority which can deem an election decision as "uneducated" and "harmful" then why have voting at all?
Why not just leave major decisions to a committee, if we're going to pick and choose which elections are decided "correctly."
- toomuchtodo 8y ago> Why not just leave major decisions to a committee We do this in the US, but the committee is formed of three branches of government: legislative, executive, and judicial. People vote for representatives. Representatives enact legislation or executive orders. Those legislation or executive orders can be challenged by our judicial branch and thrown out, regardless of the will of the people and their representatives (see: same sex marriage, abortion, asking people if they're citizens on our census, blocking immigration from countries based on religion, laws that bring about voter suppression). Works well, checks and balances and all that.
