A recent Princeton study analyzed over 20 years of voting and polling data to ask that very question: Does the U.S. government actually represent the people?
What they found was that the number of Americans expressing a desire for or against any particular law had such a minuscule impact on the outcome that it couldn’t be statistically differentiated from zero.
They wrote that American voters have “a minuscule, near zero, statistically insignificant impact on public policy.”
yeah, but 'MAGA twitter' is literally feds. the GOP's feds were basically promising that 'the SAVE Act' would be coming soon. it felt more like a promo than a plea. but then the thing never got passed. it seems like there is a back-story here.
