5. The right would never agree
The writer apparently feels that IN HIS DISTRICT he is in accord with the magority, as for public opinion. But what about those of us who live in Red states?

Or - if you wish to try a thought experiment - put the shoe on the other foot for a minute. Let's say the Right had proposed the measure for all the additional paperwork. Would they not be charged with voter intimidation? So they would be very gun-shy about even discussing the measure.
