      Untenable. Even if the Democrats win votes in congressional races in North Carolina by 53-46%, the Republicans would still get the majority of representatives. And this is on top of already lopsided Senate where ~600k in Wyoming have same number of senators as ~40 million in CA.https://twitter.com/BrendanNyhan/status/1458547487636135946 …

      "It would take an absolute blowout, over 7 percentage points in the statewide popular vote, for Democrats to even get half of the state’s congressional delegation." https://twitter.com/zackbeauchamp/status/1458160807196434447 … pic.twitter.com/eJdxJbr2gT

      zeynep tufekci Retweeted Mike Moss

      How about: I do understand what the Senate is. What's untenable is this level of divergence between voters, numerically, and their representation at pretty much every level of governance—cumulatively all pulling in the same direction: advantage R.https://twitter.com/_MikeMoss/status/1458806255993118726 …

      It's not "lopsided". The States of Wyoming and California both have exactly the same representation : 2 You're getting confused with the proportional representative body, which is the House of Representatives. "Schoolhouse Rock" has a good explainer on it.

      It's "untenable" because it favors the party you don't like.

          It’s untenable in that it is anti-democratic

          People have a hard time grasping the difference between a government that protects rights of various minority populations (which is good) and a govt that operates by minority rule (bad).

          Clearly a system that protects but doesn’t bind the favored group is best. Bonus points if the unfavored group is bound, but not protected.

          It's untenable because people are not heard. People need to be heard.

          It's untenable b/c it creates minority rule. In minority rule, the "ruling class" doesn't need to consider the needs of the citizenry ... including the ones who voted for them. It destroys one of our methods of accountability (voting them out of office).
