Imagine the change in states’ votes if Nevada could vote minus Clark County, Utah could vote minus Salt Lake County, Missouri could vote without KC and St Louis, Colorado could vote without Denver/Boulder, etc.
Even Maryland minus Baltimore, Montgomery and Prince George’s Counties would be tolerable.
Imagine the benefit if the Federal tyrants in black robes did not arbitrary decide to rob every state of its republican senate 50 years ago. (Reynolds v. Sims, 1964)
Then Leftist urban areas would not be able to force the rest of the state to slavishly serve them.
