Corporations can vote now. If they own land. In some states.

Which is fine, they only get one vote.

But they can also divide a piece of land into small plots, make a bunch of shell companies, each one owning a small piece of land, and vote using that.

Isn't this just on Fenwick Island? And the state would have to approve the (possibly suspicious) creation of numerous shell companies for this purpose.
