    An interesting thing about this map, the way these lines are drawn would all but guarantee conservative victories for a long, long time.

    A bunch of extra, barely inhabited states, to give two extra electoral votes and a handful of senators to conservatives. I wonder if whoever drew this is aware that most Canadian conservatives are closer to American Democrats than American conservatives.

      Meanwhile, all 117 million people in the Philippines get one state. I think you’re right.

      Edit: looks like it may be two, making each one comparable with California.
