- Ideal Size: Following the 2020 census, the ideal population for a U.S. House district is approximately 761,000 people.
- Number of Districts: The House of Representatives is capped at 435 voting members (since 1929).
- Redistricting: Article I, Section 2 requires a census every 10 years for reapportionment, which triggers the redrawing of district lines.
- Contiguity: Districts must be contiguous, meaning they must be a single, uninterrupted, and connected shape.

You want me to be a fellow Trump-hater. I'd have to dig pretty hard to find that personal injustice.
So far all you people have is stuff that could easily be attributed to any number of politicians.
Sorry, but . . . snoozers . . .
How's about you try to "bookend" Trump administrations with another token asswipe like Bammy?
If Joe the **** had done anything good, I would have been supportive. He was president.
Same with Bammy the Opaque.
Do you have the character necessary to look past your brainwash-induced hatred to do that?
You haven't shown that quality so I can only assume you are a partisan hack. Prove me wrong.
new, heavily partisan gerrymandered congressional map was passed by the Republican-controlled Missouri legislature in September 2025 (HB 1) and signed by Governor Mike Kehoe, with the explicit goal of flipping the Democratic-held 5th District to Republican control.DeezerShoove » 26 Feb 2026, 4:05 pm » wrote: ↑ How has he victimized you so horribly?

-----------------------------------Congressional districts must be as equal as practicable. This requirement comes, in part, from the Supreme Court’s decision in Wesberry v. Sanders, where the Court held that, “the command of Art. I, s 2, that the Representatives be chosen ‘by the People of the several States’ means that as nearly as is practicable one man’s vote in a congressional election is to be worth as much as another’s.”Beekeeper » 26 Feb 2026, 5:38 pm » wrote: ↑ Really now. That's funny how the US Constitution gives NO GUIDANCE on how Congression Districts are to be drawn!!
It' TOTALLY leaves that up to the States to determine how to draw their lines and specifically the STATE LEGISLATURE!!
That has to really suck for you PIECES OF PIG ****, huh, MORON!!

I, s 2, that the Representatives be chosen ‘by the People of the several States’ means that as nearly as is practicable one man’s vote in a congressional election is to be worth as much as another’s.”
Later cases on congressional apportionment have found that congressional districts are permitted to have some deviations from complete equality in population, but these deviations must be small and justified by a legitimate state policy. Despite permitting some deviation in earlier challenges to congressional maps, in Evenwel v. Abbott, the Supreme Court again reiterated that, “States must draw congressional districts with populations as close to perfect equality as possible.”As such, the guiding standard for congressional districts is, “close to perfect equality as possible.”State and Local Legislative Districts
Historically, in Reynold v. Sims, the Court found that the one person, one vote doctrine applied to state apportionment schemes, meaning that state legislative districts required equal population. The Reynolds Court wrote that:By holding that as a federal constitutional requisite both houses of a state legislature must be apportioned on a population basis, we mean that the Equal Protection Clause [of the Fourteenth Amendment] requires that a State make an honest and good faith effort to construct districts, in both houses of its legislature, as nearly of equal population as is practicable.In Avery v. Midland County, the Court applied the one person, one vote principle to local election districts, finding that voters in local jurisdictions were constitutionally entitled to having their votes carrying a substantially similar weight to that of any other voter.As of 2021, One Person, One Vote applies to congressional, state legislative, and local election districts. The Supreme Court has, however, upheld population deviations for state legislative and local apportionment that achieve only substantial population equality. In the context of state and local legislative districting, districts may deviate from perfect population equality, “[w]here the maximum population deviation between the largest and smallest district is less than 10%[. A] state or local legislative map presumptively complies with the one-person, one-vote rule,” as long as the deviations are justified by a “legitimate consideration.”Despite having larger permissible deviations, any deviation from absolute equality, no matter how small, still must be justified by “legitimate considerations.”Population Basis
Currently, nearly every jurisdiction utilizes total population to equalize districts. Under the U.S. Constitution, total population has been found to be the only permissible population basis for congressional districts. In Evenwel v. Abbott, the Court held that state and local election districts, “may draw its legislative districts based on total population.” The question of whether a state could use citizen voting age population to redistrict, if permitted under state law, is not yet resolved but there are good arguments that such a system would run afoul of federal law.Drawing Lines Based on Race
