Balance of power tightens at New Hampshire state House after special election in Northwood, Nottingham
  • There are some great visuals on that page clearly showing the unequal representation. Do you know of any studies as to how size factors into the efficacy of the body.

    But also accounting for that stuff again brings up governor. But even moreso isn't that what the bicameral system is supposed to address? Is there a point of having the second chamber of congress if the first is (as close to as possible) accurately representative?

  • But is a bigger legislature necessarily a good thing? I understand the point of having it be proportional, but is there no limit to that? What proportion should we follow? Is there a point where its size becomes a detriment? If more is better then why is governor or president being one person okay?

    To be clear, I'm not trying to argue any direction. These are honest questions that I would happily accept well reasoned and sourced responses to in an effort to better shape my own (not fully realized) opinion on the topic.
