Who wins the experience test M/P or O/B?
I propose to calculate a variable for each candidate that I'll call a constituent year. I''ll take the population served (e.g. state for a governor, half a state for a senator since there are 2/state, etc.) and multiply by years of service. So 10 years as senator of a state with 10 million people would equal 50 million constituent years.
I have three questions.
1) Which party's candidates do you think will have the highest combined score,
2) how lopsided will it be and, finally
3) do you think the comparison would be fair.
10 points to the closest for the first two answers. I haven't done the calculations yet so I'm not doing this to sell a point.

I didn't do the math, since no, I don't think it's fair. How can you even think of comparing a person who ran a state to a person who votes present. There are way to many differences between Governor and Senator, hence the fact that most presidents have been Governors.

That is a ridiculous measure. What does population have to do with experience?
