California, Illinois and New York are shrinking. Texas and Florida are growing rapidly. With America’s population shifting from reliably Democratic states to areas controlled by Republicans, Democrats are facing a demographic time bomb that could reduce their path to winning the U.S. House or the presidency for the long term.

Democrats’ path to 270 Electoral College votes, the minimum needed to win the White House, will get much steeper.
