That's because our founding fathers wanted to ensure that the actual representation of the people only takes up one half of one third of the government (ie: the House). Of course, we don't have to break the rules of our founding fathers, just redistrict a bit more equally among our population district.

After all, there's no freakin' way New Hampshire should be that powerful.
