The real problem is that the size of the House of Representatives has been frozen for 100 years. The number of electoral college votes a state has is equal to the number of reps and senators they have. Since the House hasn't grown alongside our population, the relative representation for rural areas has steadily grown more and more.
Ending the cap on the House would balance out the electoral college issues and help reduce the constant congressional deadlocks we're seeing.
Except that elections happen every year....

Walmart credit card. They don't need to estimate when you willingly provide it.
It also gets rid of useless administration and enforcement costs.
But if you're not scanning your card with the checkout, how do they know what you purchased? Scanning on entrance just confirms that you entered the store, while scanning with checkout was used to confirm what you purchased on that trip.
Unless you're using a Costco-issued card at checkout, too, I would have same question. And if you are still scanning at checkout, then this isn't the time-saver they're purporting.
Dollar Tree, too. A friend of mine worked there for two weeks, quit when her first paycheck came as a debit card.
My fiancé was on the phone with her mother yesterday, explaining Project 2025 to her, and her mother literally said, "Oh, Trump wouldn't go along with all that. He used to be a Democrat, so he's petty liberal for a Republican."
Where do you charge them?
And Bo Duke was from upstate New York.
Plug Power has also done about fifty rounds of layoffs in the last six months. Excuse me if I'm skeptical of good news.
The bigger problem is that the number of seats in the House has been frozen for about a hundred years. Our population exploded, but our number of representatives stayed static, so places with the most people actually get less representation in congress.
On top of this, the number of electors a state has its equal to the number of representatives that state has in the Senate and the House combined. So more populated states also get underrepresented in the presidential election.
The Three-Fifths Compromise was absolutely fucked, but it's not what is deadlocking the House now and its not what is letting a people lose the popular vote and still go on to be president in 21st century elections.
