yeah for sure this isnt a wrong argument, neither is first past the post per seat in Australia (**** preferences, **** those asshole 'king makers').
But America is the best example of this not being fair. if you govern for California and New York (and surrounding areas) you can neglect the rest of the country and maybe win. conversely if you only govern for 'the south' then you can also be king.

and if you know anything about America, its that you dont want anyone from 'the south' dictating policy.
