United States Congressional apportionment

The membership of the United States House of Representatives changes each decade following the decennial United States Census. Each state receives a number of members of Congress based upon its population. This number also determines the state's number of electors in presidential elections, which equals the size of their congressional delegation (House plus Senate).
