Man-Vehicle Laboratory Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Center for Space Research, MIT 37-219, 02139-4307, Cambridge, MA aut A mathematical one-man one-vote rationale for Madisonian presidential voting based on maximum individual voting power [Elektronische Daten] [A. Natapoff] The One-man One-vote (OMOV) criterion is defined formally to demand (1) Maximum and equal voting power over the final outcome for each individual voter, and (2) Equal power-pervote for all groups of voters. We show that if it allotted Representative votes on a popular-vote-cast (rather than on the present census) basis, the Madisonian Electoral College system would assure individual voters the largest possible total power available to a "simple” system. This popular-vote basis ("MVP”) modification would relieve the present electoral impotence of voters in poorly-contested states without disturbing the voting power now enjoyed in closely-contested states. qu]"The worth of a state, in the long run, is the worth of the individuals composing it.” John Stuart Mill "And be these juggling fiends no more believed/That palter with us in a double sense,/That keep the word of promise to our ear,/And break it to our hope.” Shakespeare, Macbeth, Act V Scene 8.
