Unless my math is wrong, that mean an individual voter in Wyoming has almost 80 times the voice in the US Senate than an individual voter in California. |
I guess I'll be the predictable one and mention the House of Representatives.
Not to mention senators don't represent their constituents in any state. Voters in Wyoming and California have exactly the same voice. None. That's why we shouldn't vote. Don't voluntarily actively participate in a lie that reinforces your own oppression.
