I'm curious, having just read
this NY Times editorial, and more specifically this passage:
The members from places like Rhode Island, Maine or Iowa know that their constituents are given a far larger say than people from New York simply by virtue of the fact that each state has two votes, regardless of population. Indeed, as a recent New Yorker article pointed out, the Democratic senators who have blocked that handful of judicial nominees actually represent substantially more Americans than the Republican majority that wants to see them passed.
Does anyone have these numbers? It wouldn't be very difficult to tabulate the overall popular vote tallies of seated senators. Even with the chamber favoring the Republicans, it wouldn't surprise me if the Democrats actually represent
more people.
If that's the case, they should mention it every chance they get.
