No. One person, one vote, with registration tied to where you live.

Now, to discuss No Taxation Without Representation: we haven’t had proper representation since the number of representatives in the house was capped because we ran out of space for more chairs, so personally I consider that ship has sailed. I would love to get back to a place where We The People had representation. Alas we do not. Let’s start by addressing the absolutely absurd chair problem.

Yeah that would be good to address too. I wonder if we'd end up with vertically stacked Representatives like in Star Wars.
Well, if we're going to go all Star Wars with it, let's elect some kids to office. Smart kids. Kids with a sense of justice and fairness. But yes, I expect a sphere might be the best layout. Like King Arthur's Round Table, there is no head or foot.
