    The electoral college and 2 senators per state gives the Republicans a huge advantage.

    2 of the last 3 Republican presidential election “wins” lost the popular vote.

    Cornfields, prairie, and deserts have as much representation as NYC and LA.

      You are just making wrong assumptions about the people that live in those places. Progressive policies are INCREDIBLY (poll at +80%) in those places.

      A strong progressive, Tim Walz, won a rural, cornfield-prarie-desert, district on those policies.
