The total U.S. population barely reached 326 millions according the latest projection. However, the Electoral College still remaining 538 total, 100 Senators, 435 Representatives and 3 for District of Columbia. It was expanded from 535 - 538 adding in DC before the election of 1960. The U.S. population was only 180 millions during the Kennedy-Nixon race.
Wouldn't it be nicer if the total electoral votes raised to 767, so the citizens from each state could be a bit more evenly represented?
Washington D.C. will have its first voting seat, 1 Senator + 3 electoral votes -> 4 total.
The larger the house size, the stronger the house speaker's leadership will be.
Democrats and Republicans will likely to reach the bipartisan deals easier.
