I cannot recall where I read it, so no link, but I did read some projections several months ago which strongly suggested that this state is in line to lost 2 House seats in the next decade.

We can only hope, but we shall see what happens.

Oh, and I think that you are right about Vermonters. Gosh I was behind a car from there a while back, and the bumper stickers were unbelievable. That state is definitely gone over to the dark side.

If you go to polidata.org you can look under apportion maps to see MA losing 1 seat. Another article I dl said the same thing. Only "big" states lose 2 or more seats per census like PA, NY, OH. It's not that they are losing people usually, it's because their population growth rate is smaller than other states.

Polidata.org has just put up its' 2005 estimate and still has Massachusetts losing 1. IIRC MA will not even lose another seat come 2020 )-:
