Quote from: YoDoug on October 11, 2024, 01:28 PMI guess I'm not following you. What do you mean by population disparity problem?

In a heat map, where does a majority of the population live?

They live in the urban centers. in my proposal, the bigger they get the more districts they will have. This actual favors diversity in representation as the population growth is not all one party support or another

When the light Bulb Pops?

Then you will understand the Electoral college.

Population is the Reason for the Electoral College.

This is why Los Angeles , Seattle , and Chicago and New York .

DON'T get to command the entire United States. :D

No, I get it.

I'm not making the argument.  I'm trying to say that I understand the argument. 

I know that's rare these days.

As I said, I see it as a half way measure between the current system and a popular vote. I don't fully support a popular vote, but I don't like that many millions of people live in states that they will never see their vote actually choose the president under the current system. I think there is probably a right number of districts to have versus the total population. I just have not put much thought into it. The current 435 districts are getting pretty big (765,000 per district as of 2020). I don't know when would be a good population number to add districts or not.

Electoral college here to stay. (I pray!)

Its ingenious. It gives the smaller states a say in presidential elections. Why each state has 2 senators. It was a compromise (the larger states have more representatives).

Exactly. It forces the politicians to play games with the little guys outstate and not just pander to the big cities.

I hope so too. for the time being. 

I don't know that it's ingenious.  It's going to become more contentious as years pass.

they've tried to get rid of it for years and for a lot of reasons. Faithless electors being one of them. 

Only brought up that faithless electors thing because we were discussing it a while back.
