Every U.S. state gets two senators, no matter its population. So you only need a small minority of voters to control the Senate.

This is how that works out:

The 52 Senators who voted to confirm #AmyConeyBarrett to the Supreme Court represent around 156M people. The 48 Senators who opposed her represent about 170M people.

California has 39 million people.

That& #39;s the same population as 22 other states combined.

The value of your vote depends on where you live.

In the Senate, a vote from Wyoming (the smallest state by population), is worth as much as 78 votes from California (the most populous state).

If this seems undemocratic, it is! https://ajplus.co/ussenate ">https://ajplus.co/ussenate&...
