    Right they’re talking about Congress. There’s still issues with districting though.

      You vote for your Senators and House Representatives directly. The Electoral College has nothing to do with that.

      Each state has two Senate seats, voted on statewide. Districting does not affect that vote.

      Districting issues may make some votes less likely to make a difference in the House vote in specific districts in Republican states. That’s all the more reason to get as many Democrats to vote as possible.

      The average Democratic voting representation for congressional elections is less than 50%. We constantly complain about the repercussions of our own inaction.
