"It’s got a lot to do with dispersion from California to the rest of the west," said senior Brookings fellow, William Frey. "Arizona, Texas and Colorado are all big destinations for California migrants, and they all are gaining seats."
About 203,000 people left California in that period, a result of the state’s shifting migration patterns and economic strains that are making it harder to afford living here. New York, Illinois, New Jersey, Massachusetts and Louisiana also saw large losses to other states.
California’s potential loss in reapportionment, which will be determined by next year’s census count, would drop the state’s number of seats in the U.S. House of Representatives from 53 to 52, said William Frey, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution. -LA Times

Think about it , these people who have moved will be in another state that may upset the state they moved to . Like moving cancer from your arm to your leg .
The problem is we're are they moving to ? To spread there bullshit lib agenda.
Exactly. My relatives live in N. Carolina. Was a quiet peaceful place. Now swarming with liberals from the northeast, changing everything. Flipping republican seats.
Representative seats are gained or lost by using numbers tallied on the Census taken every 10 years. If the population grows by a certain amount, your jurisdiction gains a representative. This is exactly why Dems have been so "welcoming" of illegals - they are counted in the Census. Even though they are supposed to have almost no Constitutional protections as citizens, the Dems can still gain power by having them counted. This is also why they opposed Trump requiring the "citizen/illegal resident" classification on the Census.
How does going from 53 to 52 constitute "multiple seats?"
Less Democrats in congress & the country the Better !!!!
