Dave Goldiner, New York Daily News (TNS)NEW YORK — New York is on track to lose two seats in the House of Representatives after the 2030 census as population growth in several Democratic-leaning states lags far behind the rest of the country, a new population report predicted on Tuesday. California is expected to lose four seats, marking the second straight time the Golden State will have lost at least one seat after previous decades of high growth. The new allocation of House seats will in turn will dramatically affect the states presidential candidates would need to win to gain 270 electoral votes and win the White House. Trump has suggested he may seek to hold a census earlier than 2030, but it’s not clear if that would pass legal muster. The changes are not directly related to the nationwide mid-decade redistricting war that involves red and blue states redrawing the lines of existing districts, not adding or losing seats.
