In 2010, the United States conducted a census to count all citizens in each state The results were used to reassess the number of seats each state was awarded in the House of Representatives. States whose populations had increased, like Texas and Florida, gained seats in Congress, while states whose populations had decreased, like New York and Ohio, lost seats.

Explain which constitutional principle this scenario illustrates. What evidence led you to that conclusion?
