I’ve only had extensive experience with one Down Syndrome individual. I have concluded that most can be swayed against their will as his was a rather severe case.

I didn’t see anything in the gentleman’s post to indicate that the people he mentioned had Down’s Syndrome.

Aside from that, it’s certainly true that mentally handicapped people, if allowed to vote, might not make well-informed or fully rational choices. This sets them apart from other voters ... how?
