So on the flip side half the population will control 84 Senate seats. Going a bit further into it, if you add the next 8 biggest states to the total you're up to ~70% of the population in 16 states. So 30% of the population would control 70% of the Senate. It's even worse than that really. 30% of the population isn't controlling 70% of the senate. I'd say closer to 22% of the population. Because no politician gets close to 100% of the vote in any state. Or even really 80%. --- This isn't funny Dean, the voice says I'm almost out of minutes! ~Alexandra <cite>Dancedreamer posted [p:921877369] in Politics C...
