So?

I guess it wasn't clear. I was responding to this - I should also point out that a lot of people decide which state, VA or MD, to live in based on politics. So, yes, it is a thing that happens.

I understand that people who work in cities often commute. It's not clear to me why this would justify disenfranchising the people who do live in DC.

Can you follow along? The poster presented a false choice on whether to live in DC or take a lower paying job so they could vote in national elections. I pointed out the choice was false.

What does any of this have to do with DC voting rights? The fact that some DC residents could move is seems like a complete non-sequitur. Your right to a representative government shouldn't depend on whether you commute to work or live in the city.

If the cops violated your 5th amendment rights and I said "well, you could always leave town," you would find that an unsatisfying solution.

sure. let's do it.

how would I know google tells me 700k people live in washinton. thats who im talking about. way to randomly bring up people outside of dc when we are talking about dc residents. yes people move for lots of reason even politics sometimes if they are stupid.

However they dont do it because they cant vote you use these mental gymnastics like saying people move for politics implying so they can vote. but they would do that for the end result that already exists there from previous votes not so that 1 shitty vote will change somethiing. Do you know how pointless one vote is. Do you know how stupid you have to be to move to a place so your vote can change it? and troll already called you out for your other pointless comment

Did you just use the Constitution to argue against something in the Constitution?

Dude, you're the one that gave the example.
