Legitimately it is as simple as this.

What’s the TLDR on what certifying a question to a state Supreme Court means?

It's easy to say "Boston" in these discussions, and what that means is all of eastern MA, and southern NH and northern RI. I got priced out of my 1 bedroom apartment in NH (red X) after it went from under $1200 to over $1600 in less than 3 years!

Some of those dogs do not need seconds lol

Simply reorganize the entire ownership structure of football so that all the teams are owned by the league so that the entire thing is technically one employer.

…local AfD seats are accounted for in their total, 5% smaller national share, while that 5% goes to that smaller party. Does it not pencil out to an equal share of the Bundestag regardless? (2/2)

Wait, I really don’t understand how this could be a problem. The size of the legislature scales to however many seats they need in order to make proportionality work. If 5% vote for AfD locally and an align party nationally, that means the legislature just has to be bigger so that the 5% of… (1/2)

What about Germany’s MMP system? Everyone still has a directly elected local representative while also having proportional representation.

They only go back when a national anti-gerrymandering law is passed that stops red states from doing it as well. Until red states gerrymanders are eliminated, blue ones must stay as well.

The Rainbow Bridge is definitely more intimidating on the American side. Much more barbed wire and such. But I got through immigration in like a couple minutes. I mean, all I had on me was a small backpack.
