Who can vote ... owners or users?

Before talking more specifically of the "i.de.a. Diagonal" link in the summary what you will see, there are at least two issues unrelated to the use of new technologies and also be raised in a traditional ballot box referendum and ballot. The two spent this and the next entry.

We go now to think about who may vote. The approach adopted is that they can vote every 16 years older than Barcelona registered. I am talking about memory at this point in the first of the two cases that mention, but if I remember correctly, a political party, Convergència i Unió, representatives suggested a minimum period of registration to be placed in a year as an important voice of another political party, Partido Popular, has reflected on the immigrant vote. I will not go into any of these two issues. The left in case anyone is encouraged ...

There is a fresh take, for me most importantly, the owners can vote, but not users, while users, if they are not owners, are excluded.

Owners (a term I do not like and which gladly pick any best offer) I understand the census, more than anything else to distinguish them (hence I do not like the proposal) from another group: the users of the Diagonal Avenue. We agreed that I can be registered in Barcelona and the Diagonal tread once a month or a year or five years ... while non-registered using the Diagonal every day, because you have to go through it to go to work or, more significant still, working in her or his environment. And like someone has family living in the avenue and every Sunday moves to "rice" with her.

I see no clear choice as surely as I look from an economist. Given these consumers, users, who can not comment on how it will be (well, we'll see if this is really possible) who frequent the place. And for those who work so it would not be difficult to determine the electoral roll, the contract of employment or discharge of tax or the lease of the premises where the business is established could right "to register" for the occasion. After all, since March 16 that has begun the process "i.de.a. Diagonal" until April next year there is time to manage this census.

Would be more difficult for the family who will make the rice with the grandparents, but perfection does not exist.

I believe that the user can establish at least should be able to comment on what you use.
