Dear Fandin, The answer, in my opinion, is positive. Letting voters decide on putting people into office (as in a political authoritative position) or not, is the essence of democracy. It could be done either through the regular course of elections, whereas the voters decide who stays and who go, or - sometimes in special elections (as in the case of the former governor of California), usually in extreme circumstances, such as corruption, involvement in crime, and so on. I hope this answered your question. Please contact me if you need any clarification on this answer before you rate it.

the voter be allowed to vote someone out of the office? seems like the people in your office need to grow up and learn that people can't be voted out of office. |

I sort of expected a list of states that allow recall elections. I think the Christian Science Monitor did a story showing that a few states allow this and that the US Constitution would need to be amended to remove senators or congresspeople. www.csmonitor.com but I'm not sure about the article. How hard is it to put a college curriculum on DVD's to sell at libraries for $1 a course? Actually, it IS pricey, if you put $10,000,000 into each one. 100 course would cost 1 Billion. Yeah, one 300th of Iraq. You don't close schools, but you do raise the bar on what's taught, expected and available. |

Dear Scotty, Thank you for your comment. However, "I sort of expected a list of states that allow recall elections." for this kind of expectation to be fulfilled, it should be: - The client's request (and it hasn't been); - The price should have been set higher than the current one, A question like that would require legal research on all 50 States. Even looking up for the CS Monitor's story would have taken more work than usually associated with a $2 question. By the way, I don't know if you've noticed, but the client here has never mentioned the United States and might come from a different political system altogether. |
