I just read the Reynolds description, so you're correct on that one, too. Of course, by that reckoning if you applied Reynolds nationwide, the U.S. Senate is out of whack with the population. Why should Wyoming get 2 Senators with 544,000 when California, with 37,000,000 also just get 2 ? Adjust it and CA should get 68 Senators.

The Supreme Court couldn't apply it to the U.S. Senate because of the clause in the U.S. Constitution that said no state shall be deprived of its equal suffrage in the Senate, as far as I can guess (from Article V, if I remember correctly). It's a good thing, too, because otherwise, the Congress would be dominated by California, Texas, and New York. While Texas doesn't bother me, California and New York definitely do. Equal suffrage is the only thing the small states have left to their advantage in the Congress.
