The student wants to refute a claim that malapportionment in the Storting favors small urban districts. Which choice most effectively uses relevant information from the notes to accomplish this goal?

While researching a topic, a student has taken the following notes:

  • Malapportionment is the over- or underrepresentation (relative to population size) of electoral districts in a governing body.

  • It is a common feature of representative governments.

  • There are 169 seats in Norway’s supreme legislature (the Storting).

  • Seats are distributed by a formula that awards 1 point per resident and 1.8 points per unit of land.

  • Less populated rural districts with large tracts of land receive a disproportionate number of seats compared to more populated urban districts.
