The count is determined by population of each state.
House of reps
the house of reps is based on population of a state. the senate has two from each state
population
Because each state's number of members in the house is based on that states population. In example the # of house reps in california will be more then the # of reps for the state of rhode island
there were 2 proposed plans that dealt with representing the population in congress. the virginia plan proposed deciding the number of reps by population of the state. the new jersey plan proposed having 1 representative per state. the great compromise created 2 houses of congress: the senate and the house of representatives. the senate was to have 2 reps per state. the house was to have its reps based on the population of each state.
New your.. new york
House of reps. based on population Senate, each state receives 2 representatives
there are two senators from every state in the u.s. but the house of reps number is different depending on its population
The number of Representatives per state is determined by the population of each state. (Today, there are about 435 members at the House of Representatives session in all!!)
The number of representatives each state gets is based on the population of that state; for example while Utah has three reps, New York has 29 reps. This just goes to show you that larger, more populous states have more representatives in the House of Representatives.
Each state has a diffrennt number of reps. they each get 2 senates and the number is alwasy determined by the population of that state.
