[QUOTE="donner, post: 2945733, member: 277"] First, part of that has to do with how well GOP controlled legislators have done in gerrymandering to remain in power on the state level in terms of them being 'conservative'. Also, the theory of state power was great, but in practice it was really party power. Party bosses controlled who got elected and who didn't, not the 'state'. And as you noted, the point is equal representation for each state. If some states choose to split votes, so be it. That is probably a more accurate reflection of the state's voting makeup than if the legislator alone chose. Is it not? [/QUOTE]
