We could divvy up the house by states, and then within the states divvy up the seats by voter age. These days, most 20 year olds have more in common, no matter where they live, than the current geographic setup. Except for a couple states with very few representatives of their own ( I'm looking at you, North Dakota ), we could divvy up the voting age population by decade, and let the 18-28 year olds actually vote for a rep that would represent their interests, instead of almost all of them focusing on issues benefiting the elderly and middle aged folks.
