One man one vote. If you don't like being ignored move somewhere where there are people.

Hey man, if you don't like your vote counting less than those in the country, move over there!
Seriously though, rural votes are not more powerful than urban votes in the way that you imply. I have access to other articles that describe how the EC creates weighted votes. Was the one I posted above sufficient to describe how the process occurs, or should I find one that describes the actual vote to vote relationship?
