The state was redistricted in 2022, following the 2020 U.S. census. It lost one seat in Congress.[2] According to CNN, unnamed census officials stated that if 89 more people had been counted in New York's census results, and all other states' population figures had remained the same, New York would not have lost a congressional seat.[3]
