What does he has refused to pass other laws for the accommodation of large districts of people mean?
This charge refers to a grievance that arose because of the British government's fear that the popular assemblies of the colonies were growing too large and powerful as new communities were formed and additional representatives were elected to the assemblies of the colonies. New Hampshire, South Carolina, and New York passed laws allowing for the establishment of new communities with elected representatives to their respective popular assemblies, all of which were disallowed by King George. Virginia was also constrained by the same policy. The colonists insisted that representation in their assemblies was their right, because government must be by consent of the governed. The British maintained that representation was a privilege granted by the King.

What does senators are elected at large mean?
When an elected official is "elected at large" that means that they are elected by the entire body of voters rather than by individual districts. In other words, every eligible voter in the entire state can vote on each Senator. Representatives in the House, on the other hand, are not elected at large. Individual districts within each state vote for which Congressman will represent them in the House. A voter living in district 1 cannot vote for a Representative running in district 2. There are exceptions where a state can have a congressman at-large, for example, Delaware, where the entire state votes for the representative. Because Senators are "elected at large," however, districts don't matter.
