John Thompson writes blog post entitled "Hypocrites" which informs citizens of the fraudulent voting in the legislator and encourages people to take action.
Thompson explains the blatant disregard for the agreed upon rules the legislature sets. At the beginning of the legislative session the legislators agree to follow certain rules, including not voting for other members unless requested by that person. While it would seem that this would be an easy rule to follow and that our representatives would it can be seen, quite easily in fact that it is not followed. And as Thompson points out no representative is going to stop this fraud because they all benefit from it. I would also like to add that sometimes one member will vote for another even when they are present, which is directly against the rules.
Thompson then encourages people to take action against this fraud. No citizen would want a representative from another district vote for them. While Thompson encourages the people to take action he does not suggest and actions we can take.
