Interesting, but of course states will not grow at the same rates for 60 years (stating the obvious).
I've always thought that it was interesting that only Washington and Oregon (and sort of California) are the only fast-growing states that have been mostly Democratic during their growth.

Yes, but the 5 fastest growing all went for Bush in 04' (although NV should soon change)

The 5 fastest growing states are also becoming more democratic too.

The top 5 in 2005 were (in order)
1. Nevada
2. Arizona
3. Idaho
4. Florida
5. Utah

I think that also Virginia will gain at least one seat in the coming 50 years.

Well I don't know about you Tredrick but I'm certain that Idaho and Utah are thrusting leftward as we speak.

Idaho and Utah have nowhere to go but left. Not that they'll go Democratic-, maybe from wingnut right to patrician right, but really, nowhere to go but left.

I think the Southeast and Poconos will grow and we might actually see another CD in our area. The rest of the state, you will see some very large CD's in area. PA is taking a lot of NJ, NY, and even some MD/DC transplants so we won't be so bad.
