Maybe the USA and the UK should use the system France has where there are dedicated reps for expats

Interesting! I hadn't heard of that system before.

We still don't even have representation for the 680k people living in Washington DC, also more populous than a number of states. So sadly I'm not optimistic.

The 580k people of Wyoming have two senators and a house representative, while DC gets one non-voting representative. It's somewhat absurd.
