I’ve tweeted before about growing up in Belfast during the Troubles, and the link between inflammatory rhetoric and violence.

I won’t reprise that tonight.

But it’s grimly, blindingly obvious to me that someone’s going to get hurt or killed between now and Election Day 2020.

If citizenship is used instead of population, the number of House members and electoral votes for states like Texas and California would shrink, and states with fewer immigrants would benefit.
