      Canada’s metric. Close enough in much the same way that beef is vegetarian because cows eat grass.

      Yes, the majority of the population in the US is in the northeast, that’s why people hate the electoral college system. It gives a significant amount of power to a majority voting minority. A better way to represent a minority would be a ranked choice system.

        Electoral college vs ranked choice voting is a false dichotomy. You can do one, the other, both, or neither.

        The way to eliminating the electoral college, since it is enshrined in the constitution, is either a constitutional amendment changing to a popular vote method (highly unlikely), or the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact.

          And both ways involve the states that benefit from the disproportionate power choosing to give it up.

      I didn’t realize so few people lived in the Northwest. I thought Seattle was bigger than that

        It’s big, not huge, but there’s not a lot of other big cities out west. In terms of metro area population, it falls right in between Detroit and Minneapolis.

    Americans won’t understand this because our population is measured in metric
