Lebronwon 04/26/21 5:25:43 PM #1:	https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/wireStory/census-texas-gains-congress-seats-calif-loses-time-77325615 America's population growth has declined to its slowest rate since the Great Depression, the Census Bureau said Monday, while the nation's political center of gravity keeps shifting further to the Republican-led South and West. Texas, Florida and other Sun Belt states are gaining congressional seats as chillier climes like New York and Ohio lose them. The new allocation of congressional seats came in the U.S. Census Bureau's first release of data from a 2020 headcount. The numbers generally chart familiar American migration patterns but also confirm one historic marker: For the first time in 170 years of statehood, California is losing a congressional seat, a result of slowed migration to the nations most populous state, which was once a symbol of the countrys expansive frontier. The reshuffling of the congressional map moved seats from blue states to red ones, giving Republicans a clear, immediate advantage. The party will have complete control of drawing the congressional maps in Texas, Florida and North Carolina states that are adding four seats. In contrast, though Democrats control the process in Oregon, Democratic lawmakers there have agreed to give Republicans an equal say in redistricting in exchange for a commitment to stop blocking bills. In Democratic Colorado, a nonpartisan commission will draw the lines, meaning the party wont have total control in a single expanding states redistricting. It's been a bumpy road getting this far. The 2020 census faced a once-in-a-century coronavirus pandemic, wildfires, hurricanes, allegations of political interference with the Trump administrations failed effort to add a citizenship question, fluctuating deadlines and lawsuits. --- Not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5, not 6, not 7 <cite>Lebronwon posted [p:953256885] in Texas gain...

For example, if a person lives in New York or Southern Cali for most of their lives, uproot their family & change occupations to get out of those areas, why would, once they relocate to Tennessee or Utah, vote for the same party policies that caused them to leave their home state in the first place? If anything, I would assume they would just register as Independent, or split-ticket vote. Or just outright not vote at all. --- https://imgur.com/2KslScv <cite>EnterTheTekken posted [p:953287628] in Texas gain...
