The Democrats before the Civil War allocated their votes and accounted for their slaves based on the ‘Three-Fifths Compromise’. Today Democrats allocate votes using voting machines.
The drafters of the Constitution hit a wall when drafting the Constitution. Looking back, it may have all been about power then as it is now. The Southern states who became the forebearers of the Democrat Party had slaves and although their slaves had no rights, they wanted them accounted for in their votes. Naturally many in the North who eventually morphed into the Republican Party thought slavery was a crime against humanity
They eventually came up with a compromise which only delayed the inevitable, the ‘Three Fifths Compromise‘:
For the most part, those who opposed slavery only wanted to consider the free people of a population, while that in favor wanted to include slaves in the population count. This would provide for slaveholders to have many more seats in the House of Representatives and more representation in the Electoral College. Many ratios were considered, such as three-fourths, one-half, and one-quarter. After much debate, it would be James Madison that would suggest the Three-Fifths Compromise. However, the Three-Fifths Compromise would not be adopted until the Constitutional Convention because the Compromise was not approved by all of the states and the Articles of Federation required a unanimous vote.
Today we’re facing a similar situation and it is still all about power. It’s been uncovered before but this election brought it to the forefront. The Democrats are again more concerned about votes than people. They’ve implemented a complex system of voting machines around the country that are being used to fix elections.

They don't really care whether the truth gets out, because the public no longer knows what's meant by "the truth."
Well, I mean, no one can tell the difference anymore between what's real and what's fake.
Anyway, the point is, I can tell you all of this, right out in the open, because it doesn't matter who knows about it. They won't know whether to believe it or not.-

A gun is a tool, Marion, no better or no worse than any other tool, an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

Jefferson Smith: You see, boys forget what their country means by just reading The Land of the Free in history books. Then they get to be men they forget even more. Liberty's too precious a thing to be buried in books, Miss Saunders. Men should hold it up in front of them every single day of their lives and say: I'm free to think and to speak. My ancestors couldn't, I can, and my children will. Boys ought to grow up remembering that . - MR Smith Goes To Washington-
