>I have a theoretical question (for anyone who's interested). In theory (though admittedly, never in practice), someone could win the electoral vote with as little as about 22% of the popular vote. Is there any value at which you would say that, whether it's our historical system or not, the difference between the popular vote and the electoral vote is so large that it casts doubt on the legitimacy of the outcome? If the answer is yes, what is that value?

Small states are over-represented in our system, quite on purpose.

Should we re-apportion and remove Wyoming and Vermont from the Senate?
