Yeah, it's important to reiterate: the EC wasn't to offset the national popular vote, because there wasn't a popular vote to offset. State legislatures voted for their EC delegates for a good couple decades, and the only thing stopping them from doing that again is state laws. Some Republican legislators in PA talked about just assigning our EVs by fiat in 2012 before public outrage shut them up.

Also Congress getting locked at 435 is bullshit and should also be changed.

It's not locked. Congress has to pass a law apportioning new seats.

They could do it today with a simple majority. They just never have since 1912.

Yeah but smart people knew even in 1780 that the North was going to overtake the South in importance before long.

The north already was.

Virginia was the only southern state with a lot of people.

The biggest cities were Richmond, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Boston.

The south only had two major ports and both of them were used primarily for slaving and agriculture exports in 1776.

The south was just agriculture, slaving, and exporting/importing the previous two. They had 1/3 of the people and no infrastructure for anything other than agriculture and slaving.

That's why the southern delegates were constantly paranoid about population-based measures and teamed up with small northern states to enshrine states rights and state-based representation in the constitution.

I hope Mike Huckabee falls into a vat of gravy and drowns.

Also anyone against proportional representation is an idiot and more than likely a Republican voter because no one else benefits from the current system more.

There's two scenarios here, either he's about to start a war or desperate for attention tonight. Either scenario is basically gently caress him and his never ending poo poo show. I just want to watch some loving hockey tonight and not have to worry about this poo poo for one loving day. I'm finding it less and less easy to sympathize with Americans lately too, like they elected this utter shitstain on humanity and kind of have to own it if it leads to war in particular

500? gently caress, I'd up it to 750 at least, if not more-proportionally, the House should be at more than a thousand by this point.

The issue is that reps still need to fraternize with each other. It's already difficult with how big the house is now, I can't imagine what it would be if you broke 500.
