How is representative democracy used in the US government?

In the US, representative democracy is used in the form of a bicameral legislature (House of Representatives and Senate) where elected officials represent the interests of their constituents. Citizens vote for representatives who then make laws and policies on their behalf. This system allows for a balance between direct input from the people and the practical need for efficient decision-making.


Why does the House of Representatives favor the larger states?

Unlike the Senate, which gives two Senators to every state, the House of Representatives gives a number of representatives to each state, in proportion to the population of that state. So larger states have more representatives. This logically follows from the idea that all citizens are represented equally in a democracy. A million citizens in one state would logically have ten times the representation of a hundred thousand citizens in a smaller state.
