your State by the population numbers

I new call for the popular vote and a new mapping of population trend in the U.S.

The electoral college is a time-honored system that, has only broken down three times in over 200 years. However, it's obvious that reforms are needed. The organization of the states should be altered. This Electoral Reform Map redivides the territory of the United States into 50 bodies of equal size. The 2000 Census records a population of 281,421,906 for the United States. The states ranged in population from 493,782 to 33,871,648.¹ In this map, new states have formed, all with equal populations of roughly 5,617,000.²
