Quiz #02:
How many (or what percentage) of votes are required for any balloted item or candidate to succeed at the polls?
This page changed with the May 07, 2024 edit.
The Correct Answer.
For counting the governed people's votes, it requires at least 1 vote more than 50% of the total number or registered voters to consent, —or fail for lack of consent.
CONSENT OF THE GOVERNED
At present, the votes of those registered as voters, who do not go to the polls, are counted as abstaining; as public opinion has programmed us to assume that the registered voter is being lazy, apathetic, or unpatriotic
We see that with the 1756 definitions in the Quiz #1 Correct Answer: the registered voter cannot Abstain, Forebear, Cease, or Neglect to vote; until they remove their name from the registry of voters
Once a person registers as a voter, they only have two options for every balloted item; consent, —or Non–Consent. Whether intended or not; not submitting a ballot is Not the same as not voting. It is the same as Not Consenting. Non Consent is a valid vote, in accord with the contract's terms.
HOW DOES ALL THIS WORK?
From the top of the second paragraph of The unanimous Declaration, it states:
"We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness — That to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed..."
First of all, we must recognize one fact about the times around 1776. With the political abuses from The Crown, the idea with the new government would be to make it as difficult and painful for government officers to repeat those political abuses.
The primary purpose for The unanimous Declaration is the security of the governed people's rights. The best way to do this is to reduce the ease by which corruption enters our government. Then, to increase the ease by which to remove the corruption that does enter.
With this idea in mind, consider the definitions for Consent and To Consent when reading the actual words written in the still-enforceable contract of The unanimous Declaration:
"Governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed."
By definition; Consent of the governed requires that the majority of the total known body of registered voters actively grant their consent, —or whatever or whomever is on the ballot must fail for lack of consent.
The CONSENT definitions; Tendency to one point; or To be of the same mind; tells an entirely contrary story than the modern vote–count practice.
It is the duty of the people who want a balloted item or candidate to pass to convince he majority of the total body of registered voters that it is important for that voter to get a consenting vote to the polling station on time.
When 60% or more of all registered voters do not check in at the polls to consent to any item or any candidate, —we see a tendency to one point. The majority, being of the same mind, for whatever their reason, did not consent to anything or anyone on the ballot
When so few people can be convinced that a balloted item or person is worthy enough to warrant using their time and energy going to the polls to consent, —the balloted items all must fail for lack of consent.
THE IMPORTANCE OF THE VOTER REGISTRATION AND VOTER CHECK–OUT LISTS
The Voter Registration identifies every voter.
The voter check-out list counts exactly how many consenting ballots have been returned.
How does this work?...
...Nearly every political jurisdiction in these united States of America has a known number of registered voters.
...In order to get the consent from that known body, the balloted item must get more than 50% of the total number of registered voters to consent to it.
...Whatever or whomever is on the ballot that does not get that 50%+1 consenting votes, —must fail for lack of consent.
