How do we calculate my vote power?

What goes into the rating for ballot measures: Representation: how much weight one vote carries here compared with a statewide vote — the smaller the district, the more each vote counts. You have more power in ballot measures because you vote directly on the policy.

Representation: High · 71 out of 100

This district is a small slice of its state, so each vote here carries much more weight than a vote in a statewide race. About 107,087 people live here.

Show the representation math

score = 50 + 50 × ln(state population ÷ this district's) ÷ ln(50,000) = 50 + 50 × ln(10,940,407 ÷ 107,087) ÷ ln(50,000) = 71.38, measured against a statewide vote in GA (grades: 66+ high, 55+ above average, 33+ average, otherwise low; a statewide race is the 50 baseline)

High representation + a direct vote on the policy → My vote power: High.
