And it's time: The Census Bureau is about to announce, months late, how many congressional districts (& electoral votes) each state will have for the next decade.
WOW. Rhode Island will not lose a seat.
New York will "only" lose 1 seat.
Texas will gain two seats rather than the earlier-estimated 3.
Florida will gain one seat instead of the earlier-estimated 2.

Joe Biden won the electoral college 306 to 232 in 2020.
Had this reapportionement already been into place, the total would have been: 303 (Biden) to 235 (Trump).
[Note: This could grow the PE/EC gap for now. It's also smaller gain for the GOP than earlier estimates.]

States that were expected to lose seats but did *not* are: Alabama, Minnesota, & Rhode Island.
