[QUOTE="refineryworker05, post: 4638744, member: 66082"] What you posted makes no sense. In no situation should 44% of voters get to elect 63% of state representatives while 53% of voters get to elect 36% of state reps based on a system that says to the majority of voters that because you live in this part of the state, you'll get to elect a minority of state reps and thus your individual vote in determining political power in our state only counts .67 per voter and because these other people live in another part of the state they'll get to elect the vast majority of state reps and thus their individual votes count 1.43 per voter. if someone lives in a lightly populated area, they shouldn't get to elect the majority of state reps over the majority of other voters in that state. One individual vote shouldn't count more in determining who has political power. All our votes should count the same. This is not a partisan issue. [/QUOTE]
