They are using different population data. Montana is most over-represented by about 10k people using the data I have. I actually made that same kind of post 5 days ago.

They compared 1M population vs # of reps, probably because they saw my post. I compared Montana to all other states so the percentages are slightly different.

Yes its interesting considering that states get to choose their own congressional districts, effectively letting the states 'pick' who they will send to congress. The US House is much closer to a 2nd Senate than representative of 'the people'.

If im from Delaware for example, Im very mad about that.
