In this special edition of the KOMO Politicast Jeff looks at the idea of minority rule and examines how many of our institutions are working in a way counter to public opinion. The Senate, the Supreme Court, and even the Electoral College have all shifted away from majority views and risk losing legitimacy. But part of that is by design. Guests include University of Washington professor of political science Mark Alan Smith, former Washington GOP chairman Kirby Wilbur, Washington Secretary of State Kim Wyman, and ABC News political director Rick Klein.
