I have been advocating this for a long time. I think it would solve many problems and it would also in my opinion increase Democratic representation in the House.

1. The population centers would be most impacted by the increase in House Members.

2. Rural areas would see little overall increase in their representation.

3. The Electoral College would become more closely aligned with voter’s wishes since the increase would dilute the difference in vote of larger States vs smaller (Think California and Montana).

4. With the House having more urban voters represented I feel the House and the Presidency would be more likely to be Democratic instead of Republican for some time.
