I don't like the idea that states represent people. People like to talk about New York and California as a place where there are only democrats and Idaho and Oklahoma as places where there are only republicans, but every 4 years the people who support the opposing party in those states go out to vote. Their votes never matter because their candidate loses in a landslide, but they vote anyway. That is serious dedication, and it would be much better if our electoral system didn't implicitly disenfranchise those voters in every election.
That supports the one state = on vote argument. States are really different entities, each with their own issues and problems.
What even?
