      We've had this system, in broad outline, for 2+ centuries, through multiple expansions of the electorate, many different partisan coalitions, & endless shifts in who benefits from what at particular moments. Skepticism should always face those who urge blowing it up for an edge.https://twitter.com/gelliottmorris/status/1429556769022517251 …

      Not worth debating on here with you, but I think it says a lot more about you/your outlet than it does about me that you think trying to change a political and electoral system that is biased towards one party by 6 points (and growing) is "entrenching" democrats (NB lower-"d") https://twitter.com/baseballcrank/status/1429547137696739337 …

      Wasn't that long ago! And they then had more House seats than their share of the vote.

          are we just going to pretend there's a chance North Dakota, Arkansas, and West Virginia might revert to having two Democratic Senators any time now for the sake of your institutionalist narrativehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/111th_United_States_Congress#Members …

          My advice to dems would be to just win by 8 points

          We haven't had the filibuster or the computer processing ability to gerrymander for 2+ centuries and trying to add states for political gain is as American as apple pie.

          Only republicans gerrymander? It might also be worth considering why the population is moving away from blue states to red states, allowing for redistricting opportunities

          The 2008 House race had a higher Democrat efficiency edge than the Republicans have ever had in the last century.
