Well currently the GOP is overrepresented due in part to states' rights (states have more weight than people do, so less populous states have overrepresentation in the form of the Senate). Same goes for popular elections vs electoral college. This is skewed towards the GOP which is why Trump won despite losing the popular election. Call it what you want (balance of power, "minority rights", or whatever), but some people's votes were just counted as less of a vote. I mean you could apply your argument to defend dictators or monarchs. Democracy of course will of course be hurtful to Maduro (of Venezuela) but helpful to his opponents. That's an odd way to frame something that simply shouldn't necessarily have been in the first place. It's not as if God made the world evenly divided between Left and Right. It's a constantly shifting line between how Left and how Right and sometimes one side is simply more wrong than the other. I mean if we decided that somehow Left and Right should always be evenly power balanced we wouldn't have such Leftist policies such as universal suffrage or the abolition of slavery.
