Yikes. (Scaeagles reattaches his head) How about we don't live in a direct democracy.
My point was that electing a representative does not ensure that the representative will agree with us. This was in response to alphabassettgirl saying her representative is going to vote however they please (though I doubt it was worded in that fashion).
I happen to like the referendum process because it puts issues back into the hands of the people by direct vote. My representative, once elected, has no obligation whatsoever to vote in any particular way. That person will face election again in two years.
Yikes.
