  • The NYT have a reasonable election results map

  • A tiny bit true here in Canada too as not every riding has the same number of people, with some smaller ridings having 1/4 to 1/5 as many people as the more populous ones. That said, it's in our constitution that more ridings are created as the population grows so the problem is much more diluted, and having a slight tilt to the less populous areas helps offset the "tyranny of majority" that can happen when it's "fair". All in all, I think it's a decent system

  • Interesting. So the potato thing is technically against their rules, but they just do it anyways I guess?

  • Oh yes, that part is obvious. I was more curious where "twice the size" came from, especially if comparing a four-door truck to a two-door single cab which I'd argue isn't a fair comparison. Although, they don't make the maverick in a single cab do they?

  • To start, yes many people get a truck that shouldn't, so no arguments there. But to think a van is just blanket superior undermines your point. They have different use cases really (I've never seen a welding van for example).

    For example, as a truck owner who can only afford one vehicle, and who uses their vehicle for personal and work, a van would be no good for my needs. The vehicle needs to be able to haul both people when not in use for work (so crew cab is a must) and large/gross/messy stuff when it is. My tools need to be kept separate from the messy things, and those messy things don't need protection (and it'd be harder to load/unload them if covered like in a van anyways).

    Plus, all the work vans I've seen in my area are bigger than my truck anyways so that's kinda funny.

  • Twice the size how? Like, crew cab versus single cab? Not sure that's a fair comparison

  • Maybe they change which lanes are which direction depending on traffic flow? I've seen that with overhead electric indicators of lanes (red x's and green check marks).
