Proportional Representation Explained By A North Carolina Writer
Walter Gardner of Gardnerville North Carolina argues for proportional representation to reflect voter share. He explains how 51 percent versus 49 percent could translate into total control or total defeat nationwide and cites historical examples from 1892 and 1894. He warns such outcomes could avoid excessive power concentration. A separate note urges farmers to plant more forage crops as hay crops fail and prices rise, recommending millet and peas to maximize profitability.
