Steve, to be sure, that Wikipedia entry also has this counterbalancing argument: This analysis gives a strong advantage to the smallest states, but *ignores any extra influence that comes from larger states' ability to deliver their votes as a single bloc.* The only problem is that this statement can easily be missed by someone who has already decided that Wyoming is oh-so-influential in the Electoral College. Their minds are much more influenced by flashy, colorful memes that give off a sense of "math" without providing any context other than #orangemanbad: This is how the "post-truth" era works. Memes instead of logic. Opinions that are "fact-checked." What bullshit. Tenchusatsu
