New population data from the U.S. Census shows six states gained seats in the House of Representatives while seven states lost seats. On Thursday, the highly anticipated Census data was finally released after a four month delay.

Texas also came out a big winner, gaining two seats in the House of Representatives. Along with Texas, Colorado, Florida, Montana, North Carolina and Oregon each gaining one seat.

The data has also reignited the national debate on gerrymandering, as seats are set to be re-appropriated throughout the country. California remains the largest state in the union, although due to birth rate declines and a mass exodus from the state, growth has been severely stunted causing it to lose a seat.

Experts said despite this, Republicans will likely reap the benefits from the Census due to their control over most governments, making the re-drawing of district maps easier.

"Experts said despite this, Republicans will likely reap the benefits from the Census due to their control over most governments, making the re-drawing of district maps easier."

This is the key.

Tx and FL legislatures will make sure their pick up is GOP. In SC, while they did not pick up a seat they will make sure the Charleston area seat will be more favorable. This, along with the total incompetence of the Biden administration will eqaute to big GOP gains in the House.

Not in Ohio.
A few years ago, when notorious RINO John Kasich was Governor,
he joined with the Democrats
to take the redrawing of districts away from the legislature,
and put that power into the hands of a "bipartisan" committee.

Ohio's current delegation is 12 Rs and 4 Ds.
After losing one seat from the census,
it's probably not going to be 11 Rs and 4 Ds.
It's probably going to be more "balanced."

Thanks a pantload, RINO Kasich!
