Minor bit of historical non-trivia here: The Eighteenth Amendment was passed in 1920, before "One man, one vote." At the time, the US still had a "rotten borrough" problem, and furthermore, the average "wet" district had far more people in it than the average "dry" district. Prohibition passed in spite of the fact that a majority of voting-age citizens probably opposed it.
