This is really, really un-American.
Unfortunately, it is happening in a place far away, and we have no say in it. Later, some judge here will use it as a reference to do the same. We had one cumulative voting district here in California, but last I heard it was nowhere near as biased as the one in the this article. Maybe people weren't electing hispanics because they were not the desirable choices. I don't see where a judge gets to re-write election law to obtain a desirable effect. But why is there no opposition?

A similar thing happened here in central California where the court ordered elections procedures changed to guarantee more more Hispanics would be elected to the school board. How ironic. We can't have racially segregated schools, but we are required to have racially segregated elections.

Why isn't this unconstitutional? What happened to one person, one vote? Isn't this the backbone of modern government?
