Re: the argument that the Senate somehow unfairly over-represents the GOP because interior rural states have equal representation as heavily-populated coastal states… folks know most of those rural states had Democratic senators not that long ago, right? https://bit.ly/3j35bN9 ">https://bit.ly/3j35bN9&q...
Y’All Remember Democrats Used to Win in the Midwest and South, Right?

If Democrats want to win more races in rural and sparsely populated states, they should run candidates who do a better job of appealing to voters there.

As recently as 2004, all four senators from North Dakota and South Dakota were Democrats.

As recently as 2014, Montana had 2 Democratic senators. After November, it may well have 2 Democratic senators again. https://bit.ly/3j35bN9 ">https://bit.ly/3j35bN9&q...

Rather than elaborate schemes to add more states or somehow alter the role of the Senate under the Constitution, the Democrats could, you know, just try to _win more races in these parts of the country_. They did it before, not that long ago. https://bit.ly/3j35bN9 ">https://bit.ly/3j35bN9&q...

If you look at governor’s races, you see even more signs that Democrats can win in these states. Laura Kelly is the Democratic governor of Kansas. Andy Beshear is governor of Kentucky. Bullock is governor of Montana. https://bit.ly/3j35bN9 ">https://bit.ly/3j35bN9&q...

It’s not that different a story in the South, long perceived as a Republican stronghold. Cal Cunningham has a decent shot in NC and Jaime Harrison has a shot in DC. Jon Bel Edwards is governor of LA and Roy Cooper is governor of NC. https://bit.ly/3j35bN9 ">https://bit.ly/3j35bN9&q...
