I can have Portugese people vote in my Dutch elections
weird
but that wouldn't work in the USA
fair point
to vote you must be a resident of that state
The founding fathers figured this all out
they were smart af
nah
cuz you can given time, basically deplatform your opponents
by basically buying up all land
during the founding of the US, there was more land than people, so you could just re-settle, and vote though that
We have a lot of land still
yeah, but you can lay claim to it
back then, there wasn't enough people/influence to claim a few thousand miles of land
but to buy up all that land would be Voluntarily
and to have people vote for you is voluntary
yeah
but you can easily manipulate people to vote yuor way
look at democrats in 2016
maybe more tbh idk
200
1776 was the founding of the US
little over 100 years ago WW1 ended 😛
Yeah but it changed in late late 1800
slightly changed
yeah due to the civil war
actually it changed in 1917
that's when it actually changed
you mean when woman got suffrage?
Yeah
well yes
suddenly you have double the voting amount,
And half of them have other desires/needs/goals
Yeah
and emotional voters 🤦
