Etcetery.



"

This map is the creation of Neil Freeman, who noted that the current 50
states have populations ranging from a half million to 33 million.

    This Electoral Reform Map redivides the territory of the United
    States into 50 bodies of equal size – 281,421,906 divided by 50 is
    5,616,997. This map shows one possible way to redraw the fifty
    states… The map was laid out with no political orientation or
    wealth. As a result, states may be favor one or the other parties.

In a U.S. Senate based on this map, each Senator would represent the
same number of constituents."


I trust this information is sufficient for your purposes, in case you
require any additional details, please do not hesitate to contact the
undersigned.

Yours sincerely,
Cordiali Saluti
