Advanced math will have to wait a bit.
------
ALL 50 States in the U.S.A. have ANTI-DEMOCRACY gerrymander regimes
[derived from the gerrymander formation of the English House of Commons
in the 1200's] -----

1. Half the votes in half the gerrymander districts [political
concentration camps] for 1 party control --- about 25 percent
ANTI-DEMOCRACY indirect MINORITY RULE --- with much worse minority rule
due to special interest gang primary math with *open* (NO incumbent)
gerrymander district seats.

2. UNEQUAL votes for each gerrymander district winner.

3. UNEQUAL total votes in each gerrymander district.

See ALL of the MORON gerrymander math opinions in Vieth v. Juberlier,
541 U.S. 267 (2004) and LULAC v. Perry, 548 U.S. ___ (2006) due to many
lawyer MORONS --- unable to detect the above 3 UNEQUAL points in their
New Age ignorant MORON brains.

Result -- the nonstop brain dead gerrymander ANTI-DEMOCRACY *politics*
in ALL 50 State regimes in the U.S.A. since 4 July 1776.

ATTACK the ANTI-Democracy gerrymander systems in the media and the courts.
U.S. Const. Art. IV, Sec. 4 and 14th Amdt, Sec. 1.
------
The same sort of nonstop brain dead gerrymander ANTI-DEMOCRACY (or
worse) *politics* has been in the U.S.A. regime since 4 Mar 1789 -- the
gerrymander U.S.A. House of Reps., the gerrymander U.S.A. Senate and the
gerrymander U.S.A. Prez/VP Electoral College (with severe ROT effects on
the appointed party hack U.S.A. Supremes).
-------
Major Reforms -

1. Proportional Representation in all legislative body elections --

Total Votes / Total Seats = EQUAL votes needed for each Seat Winner

ALL voters get represented.

2. Nonpartisan nominations and elections of elected executive officers
and all judges.

Basic Democracy Election Reforms 1 Jan 2007

Sec. A. All candidates for the same office in the same area shall have
the same nominating petition requirements to get on the election ballots.

Sec. B. (1) The Electors shall elect the members of each legislative
body (odd number at least 5) in each year for 1 year terms.
(2) Each legislative body district shall have between 5 and 10 times the
total number of electors at the last election in all districts divided
by the total members in the body.
(3) As nearly as possible, each district shall consist of 1 or more
local governments or part of 1 local government and be contiguous and
square.

Sec. C. (1) Each legislative body candidate shall get a list of all
candidates for the body in all districts at least [4] weeks before the
election.
(2) Each candidate shall rank the other candidates in all districts
(using 1 (highest), 2, etc.) and file such list not later than [4] P.M.
[3] weeks before the election.
(3) The lists shall be made public immediately at such deadline.
(4) If a valid list is not filed, then the candidate’s name shall be
removed from the ballots.

[Equal Votes per winner P.R.]

Sec. D. (1) Each elector may vote for 1 candidate for each legislative
body in an election.
(2) The Average shall be the Total Votes for all candidates in all
districts divided by the Total Members to be elected in all districts,
dropping fractions. Ave = TV/TM.
(3) A candidate who gets the Average shall be elected.
(4) The most excess votes above the Average shall be repeatedly moved to
1 or more unelected candidates, using the elected candidate’s rank order
list.
(5) Only the votes needed to get the Average shall be moved to any 1
unelected candidate.
(6) After all of the step (4) and (5) moves, the candidates with the
most votes in all districts shall be elected, equal in number to the
Total Members to be elected.
(7) The votes for all losing candidates shall be deemed to be moved to
the elected candidates with less than the Average.
(8) Example- 100 Votes, Elect 5, Average 20
A 26 - 2 - 4 = 20
B 20
C 18 + 2 = 20 (2 from A)
D 15
E 10
F 7 + 4 = 11 (4 from A)
G 4
Excess A votes moved.
-----
A 20 Elected
B 20 Elected
C 20 Elected
D 15 Elected
F 11 Elected
-----
E 10 Loses
G 4 Loses
-----
The 14 E and G votes are deemed moved to D and F so that all 5 elected
candidates have 20 votes each.

Sec. E. (1) A legislative body candidate or member may file a written
rank order list of persons to fill his/her vacancy, if any.
(2) The qualified person who is highest on the list shall fill the vacancy.
(3) If the preceding does not happen, then the legislative body shall
fill the vacancy with a person of the same party (if any) immediately at
its next meeting.

Sec. F. (1) All elected executive officers and all judges shall be
nominated for and elected at nonpartisan elections.
(2) Each elector may vote for 1 or more candidates for each elected
executive office or judge (including 1 write-in for each position).
[This is the Approval Voting method]
(3) The candidate(s) getting the most votes shall be elected (for the
longest terms respectively in the case of 2 or more positions with
different terms).
------

The above has modified parts of a Model State Constitution ----
available on request.

NO primaries are needed.
NO gerrymander commissions are needed.
NO citizens' assemblies are needed.

Democracy NOW via 100 percent Proportional Representation -- before it
is too late -- and a Red States - Blue States gerrymander Civil WAR II
happens because of the MORONS -- much, much, much worse than the
gerrymander horrific Civil WAR I in 1861-1865 (that killed about 620,000
Americans and maimed multi-thousands more for life).

See the end of the Roman Republic in 120 B.C. - 27 B.C. and the
destruction of the R.R. by Augustus Caesar -- due in major part to the
UNREPRESENTATIVE Roman Senate and other Roman legislative bodies.

-----
PAPER MAIL BALLOTS NOW -- regardless of ALL of the MORONS who love
having hackable E-voting systems (loved also by the domestic and foreign
hacker ENEMIES of Democracy).

Oregon Vote by Mail ---- NO lines on Election Day (with NO rigged
UNEQUAL voters per E-voting machine -- such as in Ohio 2004).
