The easy solution, they say, oh, there is this problem, we got ripped off in the election so congress should fix it. the problem as it is against our philosophy to fix it. the philosophy says it should remain with the states, and state capital should be important in the place. state reps and senators should be incredibly important. i will be mine, ive been lobbying lit mag lobbying mind to say we need a pass election reform law in kentucky. its not the business of washington to do it. setting up...
