Laurel Henry · Answer 1

False.

Explanation:

James Madison argues the contrary. He writes that in large republics, there are better chances to elect fit people as representatives of the population;

that people will have better chances to elect good representatives with merit and the right characters in a large republic; that in smaller republics, there will be fewer parties and interests; and a large republic will allow a better control of factionalism.
