"Most people in food-growing regions are conservative, so we all must bow down to conservative interests" is a tiresome and ridiculous ultimatum that American politics needs to get past. Obstetricians are strongly left-leaning. Do we need to bow down to them if we want babies? Should they get 5x the vote because otherwise women and babies will all die in droves in childbirth? Most people benefit from and choose to participate in society, and in exchange each person should get the same voice as the rest. We don't need to grant them any special political status above everyone else in order to entice them to do their chosen jobs. If someone decides they won't sell food in a city that voted for Biden or deliver babies for people from a Trump county, great have fun with that. Most people are less mindkilled on politics and will fill in the gap.
