Their system is quite ridiculous with having two senators per state regardless of population. Wyoming has 600,000 people; California has 40 million.

Statehood for DC would add 2 senators in a strongly Democratic area, so that’s the real reason that non-Democrats would oppose it.

@SW-User For proportional representation, we have the house. The senate is the way it is for a reason.

This isn’t about that.
