      I live in Nashville, which was legislated out of representation after the 2020 census. Tennessee has 37%+ Democratic voters who get 11% of US House seats, 24% of state House seats, 18% of state Senate seats.

    Those born in the Capital of our country have no seats in the national legislature. The US Congress can overrule their city laws.

      We don't elect presidents by majority vote, meaning candidates who would have lost in any other country governed for one third of the century so far.

        As things now stand, the possibility of Donald Trump winning the electoral college while losing the popular vote is far larger threat than him actually persuading a majority to support him.

          If the principle of one person–one vote matters to you, you should be furious about the United States.
