The elites don't want us directly voting for stuff. Got it. While I would like to see us return to having federal senators elected by the state legislatures, I'm not going to give up citizen initiatives without a fight. | ||

> While I would like to see us return to having federal senators elected by the state legislatures I certainly wouldn't. There are multiple states with legislatures having D/R party ratios in excess of 20 points different than both their registered party ratios and what their state-wide votes for things like governor and president end up being due to how badly gerrymandered they are. | ||
