Does anyone know how many people the 47 Senate Democrats and independents represent

[Atticus]

as compared to the 53 Republicans?

Can anyone suggest a site where this info might be found?

1. I'd be curious how many votes each side got too. I mean Mitch i think got

800,000 votes and he has all the power in the world.

[PA Democrat]

2. I found this:

Republicans hold 53% of Senate seats for states that combined represent 48% of the country's population.

Democrats hold 47% of Senate seats for states that combined represent 52% of the country's population.

5. I broke down each state population

where a dem or rep has two senators I awarded the full population of that state to the d or r side in states where there was one of each party I split the vote. With that said the count I got is that there are 327 million in the US of that D's rep 169 million and R's represent 158 million
