Anyone have an idea how many representatives will be shifted due to the census in 2010? |
|
I saw a map a while ago, which showed how things will shift. I'm not sure if it's accurate. It showed TX making a huge gain and remarkably CA losing a rep.
I ask this because this will not only affect redistricting but the '12 election.

We are going to lose at least one congress-critter because of declining population numbers. :(
Come on, folks. We even have legal same-sex marriage and everything.

2. Isn't Michigan's population falling due to job losses? NY is pretty steady |
|
which means losing seats when the overall population is growing faster.
