Ron Hogan has created a theoretical map of the United States, in which the nation has 50 states, and they each have populations of approximately 5,617,000 residents. The map appears on the blog “Popular Fidelity” and can be seen at this link. It’s just for fun, but iif it were real, it would result in a more egalitarian U.S. Senate and a fairer electoral college.
Don’t mess with Texas. That’s all I’m sayin’.
Continuous changes in the new gerrymander regimes ???
NO need for boundary changes.
Abolish the gerrymander Senate — with its about 10 percent indirect minority rule.
Because of the EVIL party hacks in 1776-1860 — see what it took in 1861-1865 to abolish slavery via the 13th Amdt. — about 620,000 DEAD Americans with thousands more maimed for life – no eyes, hands, etc.
P.R. and A.V.
Highly amusing. Like how he silently slips DC representation in there. FYI though, the state that looks kinda like Tennessee would certainly call itself Franklin.
Oops, missed the footnote – DC gets the shaft again.
The creator of the linked-to map is not Ron Hogan, he’s just someone who wrote about it. If you more than glance at the site with the map, this fact will be stunningly obvious to you.
