عاوزة واحد منكم يشرح لينا بالتفصيل النظام الانتخابي الأمريكي

Quote: The number of seats each State is apportioned in the House of Representatives is determined by the state's population as a percentage of the total US population, as recorded by the most recent decennial (every ten years) US Census. The total number of seats in the House of Representatives is fixed at 435. Each state is guaranteed at least one of those Representatives. The remaining 385 seats are redistributed, if necessary, due to state population increases and decreases. This means some states may gain Representatives while other lose them. As a result of the 2010 Census, for example: Texas gained 4 seats Florida gained 2 seats Washington gained 1 seat Nevada gained 1 seat Arizona gained 1 seat Utah gained 1 seat Georgia gained 1 seat South Carolina gained 1 seat Ohio lost 2 seats New York lost 2 seats Iowa lost 1 seat Missouri lost 1 seat Michigan lost 1 seat Illinois lost 1 seat Pennsylvania lost 1 seat New Jersey lost 1 seat Massachusetts lost 1 seat Louisiana lost 1 seat After the total number of Representatives is apportioned, the states evaluate their own population distribution and draw new electoral maps showing the geographic boundaries (Congressional District) each member of the House will represent.
