But at what point do they know it won't change the outcome of an election?
If everyone who votes for something "bad" changes their vote so as to seem good-- when are the votes counted? And how does anyone know that enough people haven't changed their votes so as to change the outcome?
Does the clerk have open office hours, at 3 pm, and does a line form in the hall, so that only the first "x" number of legislators (the number of votes = to changing the outcome -1) are allowed to change?
That's worthy of SNL skit. Seriously. What next?
