In reply to the discussion: Charlie Cook: Many Are Afraid To Say It, but This Is Not a Close Race [View all]Glorfindel
(9,876 posts)78. The Senate should be apportioned exactly like the House of Representatives
That would provide each state with at least one Senator, but California, for example, would have 53 senators, elected to six-year terms, giving it the clout it deserves in Congress. Wyoming, the least populous state, would have one senator and one representative. This, of course, will never happen. It makes too much sense.
