Question: How did NY go from 47 electoral votes in the 1940's to 29 votes today? Is the whole northeastern part of the country depopulating or something?!
The answer to your question is yes.
1944 California had 25 votes. But for 2012, it had 55. Pennsylvania had 35 (1944) cf to 20 (2012). Florida had 8 (1944) cf to 29 (2012).
