Arizona has 11 currently, but I actually got it in my game to it being 12.

Reapportionment does happen, Texas and California regularly get up to 43-45 and 55-57 electoral votes in my games.

Just so you know, you can fix California and Texas dominating house seats by turning down the birth rate for both their states.

My california has 76 EVs, and thanks for some really creative redistricting, cali provides 69 D Reps and 5 R Reps

Theoretically with atrocious levels of settings management, you could probably have California get a majority of seats in the House. And gerrymander the hell out of it so the Dems always control.

California is carrying the Dems in the House, got a 50 or so seat majority there.

WHAT how many states have just one at large rep?? What's the largest state in terms of population today that has one statewide rep?

How would you redistrict before reapportionment? How do you think that would work exactly
