The pathetic thing is that New Mexican Conservatives were not sufficiently organized to take this as an opportunity to counter-attack, with their own Amendment, to take away the vote from Morons and illiterates--and, of course, keep the ban on idiots and the insane.

Certainly these terms are definable. There is procedure in every jurisdiction to determine if people have become mentally incompetent--if you don't like the term "insane," use "mentally incompetent," and devise a simple test to determine people whose incompetence results from mental weakness rather than perceptual or conceptual aberrations. But it is unthinkable to just blithely agree to let people who do not understand the nature of our institutions and the actual functions of the offices that they are voting to fill, continue to vote for those office holders.

We also need to do something about conflicts of interest. If you receive unearned payments from any branch or division of Government, you should not be voting for those who could increase or continue those payments. That is only elemental fairness to others.

Thanks for the ping.

This part really kills me:

The state's nonpartisan research group, Legislative Council Services . . .

First off, this bunch is appointed by and works for the Democratic legislature.

I voted agains that one!

AND!!! YEA!!! DAD just told me he decided he'd just not vote.

He was resistent to voting for Sanchez against Richardson. Said essentially that both sides were equal crooks. He had, thankfully decided not to help Alzheimer's mother vote. So, it looks like two potential Richardson votes will not be.

Let it multiply, Lord! May Democruds all across the land become disillusionsed, disspirited, demoralized and just sit catatonic in a dark corner on election day until all hope of voting by any means is well past. Amen.
