reapportionment

基本解釋

There's a similar lesson in the fact that Florida gains two seats in the reapportionment and New York loses two.
對于其他州，也有著同樣的現象。佛羅里達周獲得了兩個額外席位，紐約州則失去了兩個。
All but one of the states that would have lost House seats in a 1920 reapportionment proceeded to lose when the 1930 census was taken.
在1920年的重新分配中丟失眾議院席位的各州中，只有一個州在1930年普查數據啟用后仍然沒有得到席位。
After a decennial count of the population, therefore, congressional seats are divvied up among states accordingly, a process called reapportionment.
因此，每十年一次的人口統計后，國會席位將按照數據在各州間重新進行劃分，即眾議院席位重新分配法。

The 2010 Census will also kick off the dramatic political spectacle that is reapportionment.
