| Message | I doubt an extra 25 seats will make any real, significant difference in the grand scheme of things. If we're going to raise it why not go all the way...? |

| Message | The point was to make it an odd number, but it can't be just 601 because of equal regional representation. We would have preferred a number much smaller like 225 or 275, but we tried that and it didn't go through. |
