What a sham.
There are far more representatives in Congress than Senators, to the tune of almost 3:1, which is still too low.
The way we fix this is by fixing our local governments first. The States determine the number of Representatives based upon their districting and constitutions.
The answer is to fight to fix the districting and run as a representative.
States create the districts they run in.
It's very odd to describe exactly 4.35:1 (or 4.35:1.01, depending.on how you treat the VP) as “almost 3:1”.
>The Senate is composed of senators, each of whom represents a single state in its entirety, with each state being equally represented by two senators
I think your thesis is not correct though, the senate is less dysfunctional than the house, at least partly because they each answer to a broad constituency.
