It's pretty remarkable that Texas and California seem to elect the scummiest people possible to the Senate. I guess that's what happens when you have a massive population of mostly apathetic voters?
I really think this country would be better off if CA and TX were not allowed representation in the Senate (and I say this as a Texan).
- pigpaws 10y agoyou forget KY (McConnell) and NY (everyone).
- justinlardinois 10y agoThere's nothing really wrong with Barbara Boxer, and she's retiring this year anyways. Sure California has one bad senator, but when you can only have two at a time, it's hard to even out one mistake.

Removing national government representation would be more antithetical to democracy than anything that's going on now. A better solution, in my opinion, would probably be new state redistricting. Voters are apathetic because they feel their votes don't count due to overwhelming concentrations of opposing viewpoints, which probably should be split off into their own states (Bay Area, New York City, so on).
