In the United States, every state is automatically awarded two senate seats and senatorial elections take place in which the people of a given state elect senators. Each state is awarded seats in the House of Representatives based on its population. After the census is taken the country is redistricted, since there are only 435 seats in the house the number of people in each state determines what portion of those 435 that state gets.
