This would mean the next Congress would be in control at that time. The first time a non-midterm Elected Congress has had the reins. Until now, it has always been Democraps in Majority during Apportionment of Representatives, and they have always used the same formula since apportionment started (when Congress was first limited in size) - even though the same formula is not required.

I wonder if the GOP has a different idea of how State Representatives should be Apportioned?

To be clear, instead of the 2018 Elected House deciding Apportionment this December, the delay would mean next May the Apportionment could be decided, by the House Elected this November (and seated in Jan).

Sounds like Census reporting will not have a delay. Pelosi is threatening to take over if Dems are able to successfully prevent vote tallies from being tabulated in time.

Over my dead body will Nancy Pelosi be running this country.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

I failed to include that concerns are that Pelosi will make the coup for enough time to overturn the Census results, and delete the Question about Citizenship, to ensure disenfranchisement for another decade.

I am wondering if the Exodus from States was caught in the Census this year. If so, NY and CA, maybe NJ could take a beating.

Did the exodus happen before the Census polls? The Census was delayed in many places, so when Census takers checked in June/July, had NYC evacuated already?

CA, NY, IL, PA, OH, MI, MN, AL, WV, RI will lose a seat.

The final seats to make the cut are IL, NY, TX, MT, FL. Those missing the cut are AL, MN, OH, CA.

I does bear repeating, that these States which will change the number of Seats they have in The House will need to have their Congressional Districts redrawn in their States. This is usually done by the State Legislatures, which will be elected in this coming election. And these CDs are likely to be in force not only for the next 10 years (until the next Census), but also until the next 20 or 30 years or more when another Seat is gained or lost.

I hear the exodus is also including San Fransisco. Moving to places withou flowing sewage in the streets and sidewalks.

With that news, we should keep in mind that this Election will not only decide POTUS, but also the House members who will control the Apportionment of House Seats to the States around next April, as well as the State Legislators who will redraw lines for Congressional Districts as well as State Legislatures.


And these redrawn maps will last for at least 10 years, possibly 20 or 30 years.

Regarding the Exodus from NY and CA, I just noticed that if NY loses 63,000 population this year, it will lose another Seat during Apportionment (2 instead of 1). NY already lost 77,000 from 201`8-2019.

It is possible that CA could also lose another seat if their exodus is big enough.


Those seats would likely go to AL, MN, OH.

Based on the current list of States in the 2020 election, the next apportionment will take away 4 Electoral Votes net, and GOP will gain 4 EV net.
