As a rural Arizonan, I don't care if Maricopa has more of a voice because there are more people, that is literally how democracy works. If there was a situation that suits Maricopa residents but isn't ideal for me, then so be it. They shouldn't suffer because I decided to live in the boonies, my signature shouldn't be worth more than theirs. All this initiative does really is the same thing as gerrymandering, it give a bigger vote to the minority Republicans. They can't handle all the losing they have been doing lately, Yet they keep being shitbags. Instead of stop being shitbags and realizing they are the minority they try to change the rules. Also, if I recall correctly I voted against something similar to this the last election.
