Fun fact: The population of the entire state of Wyoming is about the same as that of the 100th largest city in the US

Wyoming: 576,851

Scranton, PA metro area: 567,559

An elector in Wyoming represents around 150,000 voters, whereas a California elector represents the votes of some 500,000 residents. That makes their votes over 3 times more powerful.. lol

alaska is even more wild as a big segment lives on the panhandle would be interesting to seperate the panhandle from upper alaska

As a Rhode Islander this makes me happy
