Wyoming is the under represented folks, this was the solution.
The Senate was the solution, the house is meant to be population based but they ran out of space in the chamber and capped it instead of just building a bigger room so now Wyoming is massively overrepresented.
This is a lie, Wyoming has ONE congressman.
What part is a lie?
Wyoming is massively overrepresented.
You want less than one congressman per state or what? California has 40 or 50, there’s like 5 states with one congressman. Spare me the crocodile tears about you’re so under represented.
They weren’t suggesting that there be less than one congressman in Wyoming. You seem to have entirely ignored the actual suggestion they were making, which seems difficult.
Nah. They were just crying because they think their team will have an easier time pushing someone else’s team around if certain states get even more congressmen
No, they weren’t.
Sure, i believe you, whatever shuts you up.
Man some of you Americans are so fucked, no wonder your politics is a fucking mess.
I feel bad for the sane!
What an incredible amount of self Ls in such a short amount of time.
And that one congressman represents 500k people, Meanwhile each of Florida’s represents 800k people. Why should the people of Florida’s votes be worth 60% of a Wyoming voter’s? Why should we not just give Florida 11 more congresspeople so it’s even?
Take a look at https://www.thegreenpapers.com/Census10/FedRep.phtml?sort=Elec#table
California has 678,945 residents per elected representative versus Wyoming’s 284,150, meaning that Wyoming’s residents have an almost 3x voice. Wyoming is the most represented state by population ratio and California is last.
As others have said, that’s what the senate was for, while the House should have a static ratio across all states with the count increasing by total national population.
boo fucking hoo. they have 40 plus representatives, Wyoming is a big state. 2 senators and a congressman. Person could easily argue a Californians vote is worth much more, that state has a whole team going in the house. the ratio is basically static, except for states that no longer the population to get one. Like do you want Wyoming and north dakota to share a house member? That’s not practical either.
In area, sure, but most of it is empty or populated by more cows than humans. You’re basically saying that empty land and cows deserve equal representation to humans.
You could, but you’d be very very wrong. A third as much is not more.
Wouldn’t be any more stupid than the current situation 🤷
it’s hilarious how you can tell roughly where anyone is from by the propaganda they bought.
So where do you think I’m from?
By your own logic, I’d guess you’re from somewhere with more livestock than people and a severely underfunded education system.
PNW or the western coast, although i’d bet you moved there.
You’d lose that bet bigly lol. I don’t live anywhere near there, never have.
i am so surprised you’d immediately say that. just shocked. You’ve quite the grasp of west coast slang and politics that’s either method acting or bullshit,
