Florida and Texas will gain the most….

There is surely millions of Americans and others that will NOT be counted by Census takers and that will hurt the states these people are in….

Red states such as Texas, Arizona, Montana, Florida and North Carolina are projected to gain.

What to watch: Demographics are shifting in states like Florida, Texas and Arizona, which have seen an influx of Latinos who tend to skew more Democratic and are more likely to be undercounted by the census, Frey said.
