You're right, the people in Wyoming deserve to have 3 times the voting power than theaverage American. Why should votes from the largest state that is responsible for the majority of the nations economic output count for anything?Nice try, but a total spin... 1. Clinton won the popular vote by millions 2. Trump won the 3 closest swing states by approx 100K votes... Thats what determined the election 3 states and 100K votes.For those who think Trump didn't have a mandate, he won 33 Electoral Districts to Clinton's 17. And This is how presidential races are determined in our political system. That is more or less using rough figures 66% of the country for Trump and 34% for Clinton-Obama.
Having our politics decided by the good people of California isn't the most desirable solution:
What bothers me is that California has created something of a welfare problem and this has an affect on what people expect of government.
"34% Of the nation’s welfare recipients live in California but only …
12% … of the U.S. population resides here."
Is California the welfare capital?
This sets up a belief in what the government's role should be and most certainly influences how and who they vote for.
