Electoral reform


Here. I disagree with many of these places names.

A better idea: 50 states is too few, so we should split some of the big ones. Some of these would be easy and obvious (for example: Texas, Pennsylvania, Ohio, New York, California and Florida all have obvious divisions based on geography and distribution of major metro areas). I think 60 states would be a big improvement; 80 or more would be even better. This is entirely possible -- you could divide California into seven states with each having a larger population than Louisiana (currently the 25th largest state).
