Correct, women usually have more important local things to do, even in their old age. Well, except in Finland, old tradition from the days it was WomanLand to being run by women still today. Once again, a matter of those election systems, proportional representation and especially not party-lists. (where one solution is to put boy-girl-boy-girl-boy... on the lists) All of this obviously have absolutly no meaning in a single-district-maximum-un-proportional-two-party-system. However, it is fun that the single-seat-districts had to be redistricted and Jerry and Mandered to produce a proportional major-ethnic-racist-minority result, and now the Black Caucus has 41 members, almost a perfect proportional representation result after that zero-representation. Beats Benny Hill and that murrican sax pettingmaster.mobiltelefon.hu How does it feel in a Jerried and Mandered District?? (me once lived close to this only-7%-vote-district, as the opposition didn't even bother to produce a candidate, Marlboro country)
