| Message | This nation has a very large population, more seats will allow for greater variance and a more detailed representation of our very diverse nation. More seats will mean that minorities will have better representation and more voices in the end will be heard. I support the bill. |

| Message | More seats also means that majorities will have better representation and the majority to minority ratio will remain the same all other things being equal. You may however have a point on the better representation thing. |

| Message | The ratio will be the same yes, but since we have so many people and a system where elections are won by whoever has 51% of the vote, smaller districts mean that some areas with multiple voices will have an easier time being heard with smaller districts. My only issue is with the increased cost to increase the size of our legislative body, but since Darnussia is one of the smallest federal governments int he world I think we can afford to do it. |

| Message | The CPD ultimately wishes for 301 seats. 705 is far too many. |

| Message | Keep in mind, 750 members is still less than one representative per 1 million darnussians |
