Each district has around 900,000 citizens. Dividing 25 million illegals by 900k gives you around 28 reps that shouldn’t be there.

That great! Now please state your source of information. Serious. I really need to see a credible research story with facts and figures showing this conclusion. Thank you.

They’re 435 seats in Congress whether Illegal Aliens are counted or not, where it makes a difference is in places like California which is a sanctuary state artificially inflating their population versus a state like Florida who is helping ICE with deportations.

In the census California gets extra seats they should not be getting, and Florida gets cheated out of seats they should be getting.

Last census, Florida gained 2 new seats when it should have gotten 4...

Basically blue states are getting a couple of dozen extra seats the should be going to red states.

Even if illegals do not vote (I believe most do not?!) they are still represented, because the districts include them.
If the noncitizens were uniformly distributed or there were infinitesimally small number of them, counting them would not make too much difference.
But this is not the case.

If you look at any recent election, you can add all votes cast. You will find massive disparity in cast votes between different districts.
One average districts should have about 900,000 citizens and some do. Some have even more!

But, on the other hand, there are districts with only some 300,000 citizens.
The rest are noncitizens and a lot of them (most in many districts) are illegals.
it means that the congress perron of this district is basically representing mostly non-citizens.
