    You’re thinking of the # of representatives not growing with the population like it’s supposed to. But even then, they ARE reapportioned based on the census. The census also reapportions electoral votes. AND if there’s enough population shift there’s also the redrawing of district lines.

    So basically, yes FL losing / drastically shifting population could impact all sorts of things every 10 years.

        “Team Blue”? who’s talking politics. Nature DGAF about who you voted for. Anyway …

        Geologic time for continental drift is not even close to the same as annual hurricane season and [wait for it] wild fires!!! And guess what, I DO say the same about anyone loving in areas prone to more and more wild fires who continue to rebuild there. But at least wild fires have one small chance of being mitigated through proper fuel management and power-line spark prevention.
