      Pinboard Retweeted Nate Cohn

      In general there is too much discussion of how Republicans plan to steal elections. and too little of their excellent prospects of winning them fairly by big margins. It feeds a comforting fantasy that we live in a deeply progressive country instead of a divided one.https://twitter.com/Nate_Cohn/status/1386777540606537728 …

      Reapportionment bring huge changes in the Electoral College math: Biden wins 303 electoral votes, down from 306. Even so, worth noting that the already significant relative Democratic disadvantage in the Electoral College still gets slightly worse

      Here's a fallacy I see pop up over and over. Yes, there are deep structural inequities in the electoral college, the way the Senate is designed, and so on. But you can't take Republican successes in that flawed system and calculate how they would "really" do in a fairer system

      In such a reformed system, issues and tactics would necessarily change, and we might still lose. Democratic commentary today is a form of fantasy football where we convince ourselves we're the real winners if you factor in all the unfair stuff we face. It masks a political crisis

      This is a little weird, no? 1) it assumes that a change to a more democratic "one person, one vote" structure is "fantasy football" when it has intrinsic value 2) concedes that "issues and tactics" would change, as if all else holds equal. But isn't the goal for policy to move?

      You should distinguish two things: 1) The current system is manifestly unfair in its design and reforming it is a good in itself. 2) Politics adapts to institutional and structural change and you can't infer conclusions about future success in System B based on System A

          Agree on 1 for sure. And I think 2 is almost the ball game. Put another way: if you adapt the institutional biases toward democracy, the whole platform changes such that majority views are better represented irrespective of the winning party. We all win!
