gollark: Are you saying that the electoral college system does *not* favour rural people over city ones, in general?
gollark: There are a lot of groups of people with different needs. Why favour rural people over city people instead of rich people over poor people or [race 1] over [race 2] or Apple users over Android users or whatever? It's arbitrary.
gollark: Please stop contradicting yourself on this, as it is very annoying.
gollark: In rural areas there is more voting power per person, which is obviously what I mean.
gollark: It's not really that good, but it's generally better than randomly giving one group more power.
