because some states have more people
It depends on the number of people in the state. If there are more people, there will be more representatives.
Every state has 2 senators so no state will have more. Representatives are based on population and the states are divided into districts from which a representative is chosen. Some states do have more representatives than others.
Each state has two Senators in the US Senate. In addition, each state has a number of Representatives in the House of Representatives based on the state's population. Each state will have at least two Senators and one Representative. No state can have more than two Senators, but some can have more than 40 Representatives.
If your question is referring to the House of Representatives, then it is because the House's representatives are determined by population of a state.
The number of representatives in a state is based on its population.
California.California = 53
the house of representatives was based on the population of the state and the senate was 2 representatives per state no matter the population.
California
The number of representives of a state is based on the states population. The higher the population the more reps the state gets. A smaller populated state would therefore have less reps then a state with a higher population.
Each state may have at least one representative. California is the state with the most representatives with 53. Law states that there will be no more than 435 representatives in the house.
Every state has 2 senators. Representatives are determined by population. There is no limit on representatives. Therefore, more populated states give more reps (like 23 or 5), which easilly adds more. Even if some states only give 1.
there are more representatives than there are senators. senators=100 (2 per state) representatives=435 (depends on census count)
