A few years ago, the SSP put together a tidy list of the most and least populous CDs.

Gonna be Wyoming for the foreseeable future. They're not even close to having enough people for a seat. Montana should cede the Billings area to them just to make things tidy Tongue Before Vegas became a big city, Nevada was an even worse case. IIRC, they had less than a quarter of a CD's population.

Rhode Island. They just barely have enough people to get the second seat and don't really "deserve" both. Things are very crude in the low population states. Montana has just a hair fewer people than Rhode Island, but only gets one seat for their nearly 1 million people.
