reapportionment

基本解释

There's a similar lesson in the fact that Florida gains two seats in the reapportionment and New York loses two.
對於其他州，也有著同樣的現象。彿羅裡達周獲得了兩個額外蓆位，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衆議院蓆位的各州中，衹有一個州在1930年普查數據啓用後仍然沒有得到蓆位。
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後，國會蓆位將按照數據在各州間重新進行劃分，即衆議院蓆位重新分配法。

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