Why would CA gain an electoral vote?  I thought we were on our way to losing one...

I'm skeptical of any map that shows CA holding steady or even gaining an EV.  We *should* lose exactly one next census and this thread is starting to conform to that belief Smiley

Wikipedia's one seemed alright before I saw that it showed Texas gaining 4 seats.  Is that really possible?  I'd predict three since they have a great economy, but four is huge.

Maybe you're right.

I mean, if California had Nevada/Arizona-like growth numbers, we'd probably be gaining 5 or 6 each decade.

Four would be impressive and, for me, headline-grabbing, but I guess it makes more sense for Texas than any other state.  If I were a betting man though, I would place more money on three, but Texas does stand to be the biggest winner this decade EV-wise regardless.

I kind of want to move there to be honest.  Better job market than almost anywhere else.
