What your maps really show is that rural conservatives have no representation and likely won’t get any soon.
What are you talking about?
The Constitution provides for equal representation by population in the House of Representatives and equal representation by STATE in the US Senate.
In the Senate, rural states are by far over-represented.
The scales are also weighted in favor of smaller population states in the electoral college for presidential elections.
No, rural & small town populations cannot claim to be under represented.
It's just that urban & suburban populations so outnumber us, even the Constitution is losing its ability to protect us from them.
But with suburbs on our side as recently as 2004, we were still in the majority, and I would no way give up hope just because of a couple of losing elections.
The suburbs may have believed they were voting for "France" in 2008, but they will not be so thrilled to learn they are becoming the "People's Republic of America."
We could get them back. Be patient, my friend.
