The table below gives the proportion of different communities among the candidates who won elections to the US Congress. Compare these to the proportion of these communities in the population of the US. Based on this would you suggest a system of reservation in the US Congress. If yes, why and for which communities? If no, why not?

             Proportion of the community

           House of Representatives - Population of US

Blacks         -           8                -         13

Hispanics      -           5                -        13

Whites           -         86              -        70

Based on the table, a reservation for the Hispanic community is a good idea. This is to make their representation in proportion to the percentage of their population.
