Playing around with an idea for state legislatures

"The number of votes a person can cast is decided by the magnitude of the district; up to six every voter cases one vote, up to twelve they can cast up to two, up to eighteen they can cast up to three, and so on."

Basically, if a district elects nine members, then a voter can cast a single vote for up to two candidates. If it elects three, then they can vote for only one. And so on.
In Los Angeles County, people can vote for up to five candidates.
Thanks for bringing the ambiguity in that sentence to my attention. I will promptly clarify that.

That sounds like a watered down version of cumulative voting for multi-member districts. Maybe that escapes the reach of the VRA, maybe not.
