  • States are fairly arbitrary divisions of land and I don't think they need representation separate from the representation their people have.

  • They're both problems.

  • Never heard of it. It's difficult to know how much of the difference is the actual occurrence and how much is the reporting of it.

  • Don't all countries have this problem?

  • Ranked choice for presidency, proportional for congress (and the senate if that's worth having exist at all).

    What a coincidence he doesn't have a problem following countries with leaders infamous for oppressing minorities.
