More really bad news for California.

We reported on the mass exodus from California a couple of weeks back  – it’s very real and it will have very far-reaching consequences.

The failed liberal state will pay dearly for chasing away their residents.

Besides all the usual downsides that go along with a mass exodus, California will also lose a congressional seat.

The change is a result of the 2020 Census which will reveal the population shift in California compared to other states.

If other states outpace California’s growth, the number of seats in the House of Representatives will drop from 53 to 52.

This would be a first for the state, according to the Los Angeles Times.

Now, here’s where California’s bad news gets even worse.

Since the census is taken every ten years, it will take the state at least ten years to gain any lost seats back. If it fails to do so by the 2030 census, there’s always 2040 to look forward to.

While California hemorrhages residents, states like Arizona, Texas and Colorado are gaining residents and potentially, more representation in the nation’s capital.

Texas alone is expected to gain a whopping three congressional seats, the Times reported, citing Brookings Institution senior fellow William Frey.

Between 2018 and 2019, over 200,000 people left California, according to recent Census Bureau estimates.

Of course, it’s no secret that people are fleeing liberal havens.

The mass exodus means big changes for some California cities.

One poll even found that almost half of San Francisco Bay Area residents want to pack their bags and head for greener pastures.

San Francisco’s progressive ways appear to be a road map for many cities in California, for better or worse.

While other leftist cities are just now realizing that the problems left unchecked threaten the very fabric of their society, we can see the late-stage consequences of the liberal attitude in the City by the Bay. [Western Journal]

We also reported on AOC’s house seat being n danger.

Thanks to President Trump’s census question, New York is poised to lose a seat and state Dems are targeting AOC. You can read that story here.
