I made no such assumption. I don’t know anything about the bill and don’t care if it is in the best interests of the masses. I do care about the majority of the electorate having their votes count for something with regard to public policy (provided said policy does not violate Constitutional rights). It’s best to read what I wrote without trying to guess my feelings on things I’ve not talked about.

yeah I read it that way, I'm not sure why these two posters are twisting your words/intentions.
It’s a fair interpretation. A representative’s job is to represent his constituents, not to pass bills on party lines written by oligarchs. The allocation of R/D senators doesn’t factor into this. “What is best for the people of West Virginia?” is the only question he should be considering.
