He's declined to be on the ballot because the DNC wanted to change the primary order and now the first in the nation NH primary is "unsanctioned"

From what I hear, the biggest reason this happened is him doing a lot of personal campaigning.

Also some say it's because he's focused on "the homeless problem".

It's town election, the point still stands, especially with the accessibility of information.

I would be grateful to anyone pointing to where this decision can be reversed. Even better if it already has.

There are some great visuals on that page clearly showing the unequal representation. Do you know of any studies as to how size factors into the efficacy of the body.

But also accounting for that stuff again brings up governor. But even moreso isn't that what the bicameral system is supposed to address? Is there a point of having the second chamber of congress if the first is (as close to as possible) accurately representative?

But you're just making statements like they're self evidently true. There is no reasoning or sources to back what you're saying.

But is a bigger legislature necessarily a good thing? I understand the point of having it be proportional, but is there no limit to that? What proportion should we follow? Is there a point where its size becomes a detriment? If more is better then why is governor or president being one person okay?

To be clear, I'm not trying to argue any direction. These are honest questions that I would happily accept well reasoned and sourced responses to in an effort to better shape my own (not fully realized) opinion on the topic.

*it was Then they limited it, I question if that limit is too high.

While I agree, I also question the need for 400 house seats

I used to be proud of our purple status but I'm personally glad we're turning blue.
