  1. The GOP loves to celebrate cheating. The fair thing to do would be to expand the House of Representatives with population growth like we did until 1913. That way our representatives would actually be required to truly represent their constituents. Unfortunately for Republicans, this would mean they would never hold power again.

    Our entire election system is biased to give rural voters more power. They already get a large advantage in the Senate. At least give the House to urban voters.

    1. Wesley I don’t know if you know it or not but each state gets a representative based on the number of people living in that state. Hence states with large populations have a larger number of representatives. Rural states with smaller populations have a less number of representatives. As far as cheating that award goes to the democrats.
