How do you access the new numbers?

Also, it looks like the current FL-25 is destined to flip next decade. Only a matter of time. Same with MN-7/8 too. Also, NV-3 should become much safer with Clark County being able to support virtually all of three CD's.
read the directions in the op (basically find DRA folder on computer, download the files, then paste files into state folders)
let me know if you run into any problems

Sorry, I'm a bit of a dunce with computer stuff--would it be possible to a very ELI5 tutorial with this?

I just added separate 2012 and 2016 prez results to New Jersey and Massachusetts >:3 more states to come soon. I might integrate it with the data to see in DRA if I can figure that out

The Census Bureau produces population estimates for congressional districts based on the ACS.

How close do these match the current districts using your estimate data?
um do they have 2020 estimates? i mean i just looked at the 2016 estimates for new jersey's districts, and it matches up with my 2020 estimates in terms of growth patterns - northeast areas overpopulated, southern underpopulated
No, the ACS is based on a (large) sample. For a single year it is based on around a 3% sample, so they would have household size for every 30th address. For a congressional district that is around 10,000 households, so it should be relative close to a 100% count.

You should be able to compare a projection of the growth from the 2010 Census to the 2016 ACS projected to 2020 - and compare with your alternate projection.

Incidentally, the 2017 ACS will be released on September 1.

How do I access them? All I see right now is a vague 2012/2016 PVI tab.

Did you try re-starting DRA? Be sure to close your browser and then re-load it after replacing the file. That may be an obvious thing, but just in case you didn't do that, try that.

I haven't even got DRA open when I do it, I open it up after I change the files.

Hey so I figured out how to use this, but some of the precincts in NC are blank, with no data or population. Why would this be so? I redid it twice.
