CA: Population: 38,965,193, EVs 54, so each EV represents about 740,096 people.

ND: 783,926, 3 EVs. 261,309 people per EV.

New York: 19,571,216, 28 EV. That's 698972 people per EV

Iowa: 3,207,004, 6 EV. That's 534,500 people per EV

Wyoming: 584,057, 3 Ev. That's 194,685 people per EV.

The representation should be roughly equal, people vote, land doesn't.
