New Yorkâs 27 congressional districts, currently NEW YORK– New York will lose one seat in Congress as a result of national population shifts, according to census data released Monday a loss that might have been avoided if just a few dozen more people in the state had been counted. The state’s population grew by more than 4% over the past decade, according to the 2020 census, but that increase didn’t keep pace with larger gains in other parts of the country. The final calculation of winners and losers in the race for representation was incredibly close. If just 89 more people had been counted in New York, and no other states counted more residents, it would have held on to all 27 of its current seats in congress, according to Kristin Koslap, senior technical expert for 2020 Census Apportionment.
