Quote:There are 535 people in Congress. We only get to vote on 3 of them. For most people, their most highly thought-of member of Congress is their own. Because they see the pork they bring back from Washington. It's the others they don't like. The ones they can't vote for.

 

Most Congressional districts are gerrymandered to where the same party easily get re-elected. There are very few "purple" districts.
