Vote Thieves: Illegal Immigration, Redistricting, and Presidential Elections

Orlando J. Rodriguez

4.9/5 (20929 ratings)

Description:On April 4th, 2016 the U.S. Supreme court ruled in the "one-person, one-vote" case (Evenwel v. Abbott) that for purposes of political representation people who cannot vote, including illegal residents, must be counted as if they can vote. This ruling is wrong and is based on a biased and selectively incomplete reading of U.S. history. The Framers knew that using only population for the basis of representation was flawed and hoped it would be changed by a future generation. Using population for the basis of congressional representation bolstered slavery, forced the resettlement of Native Americans, denied voting rights to women, disenfranchised African Americans after Reconstruction, fostered segregation in the South, and disenfranchised voters in the presidential election of 2000. Sadly, more than 200 years after the U.S. Constitution was written we have not yet made the fix the Framers wanted. Every ten years political representation in the U.S. House of Representatives is redistributed (reapportioned) among the fifty states. The process begins anew with the 2020 census, which will count the nation's population as the basis for representation in Congress. The national census has a history wrought with failures and inaccurate counts. In Vote Thieves, geographer Orlando J. Rodriguez shows how our current method of apportionment creates an incentive for illegal immigration and polarizes our political system. This issue affects all U.S. residents--legal and illegal alike. Recent history has triggered a growing suspicion among Americans that their political system is flawed. Vote Thieves explains a singular flaw that voters suspect but cannot put into words and gives them the information they need to petition for a more responsive political system.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
