CAP/NTP: Did Skid Row Help Skew the Election for LA Mayor?

A Post investigation found nearly 1,200 people registered to vote at a homeless shelter with 132 beds, and another 185 at a drop-in center with zero beds.

I'm against low-commitment/low-information voters voting anyway. So I'm against GOTV campaigns of basically all kinds. If you don't know enough / care enough to vote, don't vote. (For years I was out there with the Dems doing GOTV. I regret that now for more than one reason.)

   Many people think that all voting is good and more voters is better.

   I understand, but disagree.

   I'm currently inclined to think that democracy is a necessary...well...not evil...but a necessary not-so-great. In addition to being a democracy, we're a liberal, constitutional republic...and I currently think all three of those components are more important than democracy. No, I don't think you can preserve the other things without the consent of the governed--and democracy is probably the best way to secure that. So this view doesn't amount to much, really.
