Looking at elections like this is messed up. Californias population is 65x as large as Wyoming. In some ways, it make as much sense to give Fresno its own box.

Yeah very unfortunate that people think some areas should count more than other areas. I just think each citizen should count the same.

Which three cities? Adding NYC, LA, and Chicago gets you to 15.6 million or 4.65% of the US population.

It's a shame all the Governors of all states have to be voted in by a urban popular vote and not by a representative county vote so that all counties could have a voice. Also a shame that there's not another part of government that is powerful and gives a voice to all states, no matter how small.
