House voting rights widen
This was an article I found that was of interest to me about expanding the voting rights District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, the Virgin Islands and American Samoa. The focus of the article is that Delgates representing the above areas can cast ballots on proposed ammedments. Something that I found interesting though was that if the delegates' votes decide the outcome of an amendment, the vote again without the delegates' from the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, the Virgin Islands and American Samo.
