Population Trends Continue to Favor GOP

Population Trends Continue to Favor GOP

"Arizona, Florida, Texas and Utah would each gain one seat in the U.S. House of Representatives if districts were reapportioned today," according to an analysis by American City Business Journals. "Iowa, New York, Ohio and Pennsylvania, on the other hand, would each lose a seat."

That's a net shift of two electoral votes to Bush... and Iowa as the smallest state to lose a seat takes proportionally the biggest hit. Looks certain that Iowa will have to go through Resistricting From Hell again in 2011.
