In the other 30 states, people who have been ruled mentally incompetent are not allowed to vote. |

An important question to address is how much do such ones affect the vote anyway? How many are actually voting, and what percentage of the voting pool do they make up? Also there are degrees to which these people are affected by their issues, where's the cutoff point, and how do you ensure uniform application of it? Being a commie is a mental disorder, right? |

while it makes sense on paper complications and authority issues would screw it up it also goes against the "everyone has the right to influence their leaders" thing that america is all about |
