BUT the number of electors and Representatives each state gets is based solely on residents, regardless of whether they are US citizens or not?


Why is this relevant?

?

Isn't it obvious?

Let's say that California has... oh 30 million legal citizens.

And ten million non-citizens, including illegals residing in Calfornia.

The Census indicates that 40 million people live in California, whether only 30 million are citizens and thus legally able to vote in Federal Elections or not.

Meanwhile South Carolina has far less non-citizens residing in it - a pattern true for a lot of Red States I think.

Should (and Is?) Calfornia awarded electors and a proportional number of Representatives based on a population of 40 million?

Sounds wonky, but essentially my pulled-from-the-arse numbers would indicate that California has 33% more throw-weight in packing the House with little SJW's and electing witches.

And I don't like that.
