Yeah, the obvious thing is to split LA, and New York into 5 different states each, so that the liberals gain more power in the senate.

The state level representation of the senate is very arbitrary

I think the constitution bans splitting states. I was looking into combining the dakotas and it doesn't seem possible because of that clause.

And then TX will split into five states.

We can do that all day to no real effect.
