Update on the Cherokee Purge.
Mar. 26th, 2007 01:08 am"The Cherokee Nation has 250,000 to 270,000 members, second only to the Navajo... Principal Chief Chad Smith said about 8,700 people had voted - more than the turnout for the Cherokee constitution vote of four years ago.
WTF? How can a vote in which less than 4% of the eligible voters took part possibly be binding? Did the Cherokee tribal government make any effort to publicize this vote at all? Oh well, at least this makes it slightly more likely that the Cherokee Nation as a whole aren't a bunch of flaming hypocrites, onlt the current tribal leadership.
