Let's say the house of represenatives upped to 443(the extra reps that hawaii/alaska had before their first reapportionament plus the addition of 3 more from puerto rico). The electoral system is changed to have the reps be elected from districts of 500,000 people.
Now the senate with its 102 members would still be kept but senators wouldn't be elected from states: They'd be elected from districts of 3 million people(100 senators and 300 million people).
Oh and all the districts are selected by an impartial independent comission with a mandate to keep the borders contiguous, compact and non-gerrymandered.
How does US politics Change with this?
