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]

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.

This is not what people mean when they say vote in 2 places commonly. And I said 2 cities before.

1 person 1 vote is an expression of equal representation.[1] Someone who votes in city 1 and city 2 and someone who votes in city 1 solely have unequal representation.
