  • MTG’s district is the 14th of Georgia. It has a population (according to Wikipedia) of 796,193. She won her election with 64.4% of the votes. Even if we had 100% voter representation (lol we most certainly do not), that means that 512,748 or so people voted for her. Again according to Wikipedia, the US’ population is at about 340M. That means that at most 0.15% of the country voted for her.

    She also originally won her election because she jumped from a different district in Georgia to the 14th, whose incumbent had announced was not running for re-election. So no, she doesn’t represent anything approaching a majority of the US; if anything she represents everything that is wrong with our current voting system.








  • This drum needs to be beaten. With the current furor over MLS, I have absolutely no sympathy for Foden.

    How long have we seen headlines like - Foden bangs in some long-range shots while oil money boosts CIty to another trophy: Foden clear of Saka MLS does a lotus pose goal celebration: MLS needs to calm down and be humble (ironically)

    What’s really interesting is that I’ve heard almost no one talking about Saka but Arsenal fans wishing him back to health.
