Neat . Good deal ! <| sep |> Here ' s my spreadsheet in a viewonly mode RYA 68 d 2 njG 1 geOi 5 JmOslIedit ? uspsharingThe Power is the relative voting power per person , normalized so that California 1 . 0 . I combine that with the number of people x percentage of each race to get the collective voting power of all of that race in that state . Add those numbers together across states , then divide back out the percentage of each race nationally , and there ' s the relative voting power per person of that race . Feel free to make a copy for yourself to play around with math . The Default sheet is the relevant one to this question the others are mostly just some exploratory data that hasn ' t amounted to much by way of conclusions . Fun fact You can adjust the math to see Pres , Senate , and House influence separately , and minorities are disadvantaged in all three . Even the HoR , which should be proportional , still manages to give white voters a slight edge .
