Your, how you say "red herring" of a question is not the same either as there are no national referendums in the US.

2. And by simply switching to a real life situation (abortion vs marijuana) I showed how the citizens DO try and change laws through their votes.

3. And someone else pointed out that states have recall elections to "change their results" too.  It can happen.

4. But if you want to keep just saying "they voted, its over, we can never vote again" feel free.  I'm engaging in the discussion that there are variables at work to putting Brexit into effect.  Not that people are INTENTIONALLY "dragging their feet" but that it was an ill-thought out proposition in the first place and therefore much harder to do.  that leads to people thinking it is not worth doing.  that leads people to vote for people who will try and fight to change it/nullify it.

You know...democracy.

That's all.

5. But I never said they absolutely SHOULD do that...just that doing it would not be the end of democracy.

1. No you didn't answer the question, you simply chose to change mine to be about election cycles. This was done to divert from the issue at hand aka Red Herring

2. For the final time, the issue at hand has nothing to do with election cycles; regardless how many times you try to draw the correlation. 

3. Recall elections deal with....wait for it..........here it comes........officials elected during election cycles. Re-read point #2

4. Once again you are changing my words to try and give yours some merit. I never said it was over. I said the folks voted and it's the officials obligation to fulfill their wishes. Perhaps re-read point #1

5. No one said it would end democracy. Please re-read point #1
