As to how there can be such a law, it's easy. All that has to happen is
that a majority of legislators vote "aye". Now, whether the courts let it
stand is another story.

It's far more complicated than that.
Just taking the vote by the legislators: each has to consider what his
vote will mean to the voters, not just as far as passing the bill is
concerned.

How does that make it "more complicated" than a majority vote?

I do think the cop exceeded his authority; as I pointed out, the
excuse that a super wasn't on duty is absurd.
