Original Note:
Even if votes were based on population, this significantly overstates the power of the top 4 states. The most populous states have less representation per capita. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._states_and_territories_by_population More accurate maps representing population by size exist: https://brilliantmaps.com/us-territories-resized/ https://engaging-data.com/scaling-us-states-population/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/govbeat/wp/2014/04/14/what-the-u-s-map-would-look-like-redrawn-by-population/
