Are you predicting that Alabama and Mississippi are going to go Blue in 2026 and 2028? And in 2026, even if people in Mobile Alabama have higher turnout - it still won’t matter because if gerrymandering.

If there is “60% consensus” and those people are in a state that’s already Blue, it doesn’t make a difference. We haven’t even brought up the fact that every state has 2 Senators meaning that the most populous states are represented by the same number of people as the least populous. The Senate decides the Supreme Court judges and the Cabinet.

You are clearly having reading comprehension issues. That or just twisting words for internet argument points. Either way, I think we aren't getting anywhere in this conversation. So, you have a great day!
I’m not. What you are saying makes little sense given the realities of the electoral college, the Senate having two senators, and how easy it is to gerrymander because democratic votes are concentrated.

The votes of the more left leaning part of the electorate are disadvantaged and diffused because of it. California and New York are represented by the same two Senators as North and South Dakota.

Guess you're just going to have to wait and find out for yourself. Bye now, Raw Anon.
