[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure the Amendment adds anything except process. The Commission will still effectively be dominated by the General Assembly. If they cannot develop a comprehensive, 100% recommendation, then it goes automatically to the state Supreme Court, which is highly politically unpredictable but can be expected to be no more inclined towards Dems than the present stand-off exercises. [/quote] Moe important for Virginia voters is to remove non-partisan elections where the voters do not get to choose election day ballots via a primary. To "vote" for Democratic school board candidates we have to pay to join the FCDC and show up at a far location. And who can join? You don't have to be able to legally register to vote. Non-citizens. FCPS has a 3 billion dollar budget and over 52% of my local property taxes go to that budget. We have to PAY to vote on who gets on the ballot. Poll tax. [/quote]
