    One person, one vote. Small states still have two Senators each regardless of population, but the president should represent all of us, and should be elected by majority vote, period. Instead, people in the most populated states get screwed.

    As an example:

    Wyoming, population around 577,000, 3 electoral votes, which is one ec vote per 192,000.
    California, population around 38,000,000, 53 electoral votes, which is one ec vote per 717,000.

    That's just wrong, IMHO. With GW Bush in 2000 and Trump in 2016, we the people did not get the president that most of us voted for.

    Nah. That's antithetical to how this country was founded - which was NOT on mob rule.

    And if California obeyed federal immigration law, studies show they'd have 5-7 less electoral votes and House reps.
