I LOVE the fact that 30% of Democratic voters are herded into a small handful of districts nationwide!

We don't want those freaking liberal retards in our districts!

Democrats are VERY lucky their power base is in the Northeast where the states are very small, and thus get 2 senators for an area not much larger than a large city in the south. Nearly the whole northeast should be turned into ONE large state with only 2 liberal senators, THAT would fix a lot of stuff.

I just love that idea!

Exactly.

Just to pick a random state with 2 Republican Senators, I looked at Arizona’s total population and area vs the NE. Compared to the following list, Arizona has 238,000 more people and 94,000 more square miles than:

Vermont
Delaware
Rhode Island
Connecticut

Those four states have 9 Congressmen compared to 8 for Arizona (9 in 2013) despite having fewer people by 1/3 of a Congressman. In the Senate, those 4 states have 8 Democrats compared to Arizona’s 2. So, despite having more people and more land area, the NE states have 1 more Congressman and 6 more Senators, who are all democrats.
