Expanding the House

Although this article was written in 2009, it is still pertinent to the discussion from Thursday's class. Peter Baker describes the huge discrepancy in the number of representatives each state has to the number of people are being represented in each district. Baker also raises the question if adding more seats in the House would make the United Sates a more democratic nation.

Interesting take on the issue. Should we go to Sabato's 1,000? Something less? Keep it at 435?
