| ▲ | setr an hour ago | parent [-] | | If you’re a shareholder in 5 companies, each owning 2 parcels of land, each with their own PoA, and you yourself hold land — then you have “influence” into 6 votes, though only direct ownership of 1 vote |

| ▲ | pseudalopex 4 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | 1 person 1 vote does not mean in each city where they own property. | | |
| ▲ | ceejayoz 4 hours ago | parent [-] | | "One person, one vote" is clearly a per-race thing, or I'd violate it by voting for President and Senator at the same time. | | |
| ▲ | pseudalopex 4 hours ago | parent [-] | | This did not refute what I said. | | |
| ▲ | ceejayoz 4 hours ago | parent [-] | | You said: > The owner votes as themselves, and again as the corporate entity. Per the opinion, which I quoted above, this is not the case. (I do think it gets instantly messy with multi-owner corporations, though.) | | |
| ▲ | pseudalopex 4 hours ago | parent [-] | | Refreeze5224 said what you claimed I said. You quoted Fenwick's charter. Where a voter is entitled to vote [in Fenwick] by virtue of being both a resident [in Fenwick] and as an owner of real property [in Fenwick], that voter shall be entitled to only one vote [in Fenwick]; where a voter is entitled to vote [in Fenwick] by ownership of two or more parcels of real property [in Fenwick], that voter shall be entitled to only one vote [in Fenwick]. You dispute this meaning? Refreeze5224 did not say in Fenwick. | | |
| ▲ | ceejayoz 4 hours ago | parent [-] | | The context is clearly "in Fenwick". https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48295844 | | |
| ▲ | pseudalopex 3 hours ago | parent [-] | | The strongest plausible interpretation of josefritzishere and Refreeze5224 was the judge was wrong because voting in 2 places would violate 1 person 1 vote. Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize.[1] [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html | | |
| ▲ | ceejayoz 3 hours ago | parent [-] | | But that's not true, either. My town has a village at its core; village residents vote in two places. Our school district doesn't perfectly match the town's borders, either, so some folks vote in two places there. One person gets one vote in a particular election. | | |
