So far Democrat POTUS candidates have proposed, among other things, turning state and local election supervision over to the Federal government, lowering the voting age, allowing illegal immigrants the right to vote, giving the Federal government the power of redistricting, packing the SCOTUS and doing away with the Electoral College. MOST of these changes require Constitutional amendment. Let me make it a lot easier on them.

Simply repeal the Apportionment Act of 1911. This set the number of Representatives in the U.S. House to 435. The Reapportionment Act of 1929 eventually set up the current method of allocating seats following a census. I have no problem with keeping the Webster Method of reapportionment although revisiting Hamilton/Vinton methodology might be propitious. No Constitution amending needed.

Rough result per 2010 Census: Wyoming 578k people still merit one Representative. The U.S. Population of 308m would result in 547 Representatives. This means an additional 112 electoral votes. Even better? Madison proposed twelve amendments to the Constitution in 1789. Ten became the Bill of Rights. One became the 27^th Amendment. The twelfth was a reapportionment amendment which would result in one seat per 50,000 people. This would result in over 10,000 in the House of Representatives. Was ONE state short of ratification in 1791. It’s still an open issue. Eleven states have ratified it. Only twenty-seven more need to. LET ‘ER RIP! Want every vote to count? This would go a long way towards that. And would make legislative capture a MUCH harder goal.

And what do I want in return? Repeal the 17^th Amendment. BWAHAHAHAHA!
