In 1929, Congress passed the Reapportionment Act, loving the House of Representatives at 435. Due to population growth in largely coastal states, and the requirement of at least one Representative per state, the House, which was intended to provide representation proportional to population, instead give a significant amount of power to states with lower population densities, resulting in a tendency towards minority rule in the House. Since the number of Electoral College votes are proportional to a state’s delegation to Congress, this also gives low-population states an outsized influence over the Presidential election, contrary to the intent of the US Constitution.
Yeah, but like that’s going to stop him taking waaay too close to 50% of the vote to be comfortable.
It’s not about 50% it’s about swing states and the illegitimate electoral college
Please define illegitimate electoral college.

Do you mean the Trump Fake Elector Plot?
Glad that has an article I can share to my friends who are normally very intelligent, but they legit believe Biden stole the erection.
Uh Trump was the one in office. Pretty damn hard rig an election when you’re not in power or position to influence.
