Census Nose Count Will Not Change House Seats
The 1940 census will fix each state's representation in the House at 435 seats. Population shifts after counting will determine each state's portion, with California likely gaining and agricultural states like Minnesota losing. The piece recalls a Minnesota anomaly near Lake of the Woods and a 1930s census anecdote about a lone Canadian enclave. Overall, voters want less federal spending and wiser policy following this census.
