I am a bit puzzled by the various "majorities" values in the chart, and in particular the state majorities. Is there an authoritative source that we can verify these from directly, rather than just hand-counting the List of current members of the United States House of Representatives?
More generally, I wonder if this constantly-changing information about the current composition of the body would be better addressed in the 117th United States Congress article (et seq.), which can also accommodate information on the stories behind the numbers. For example, that article can address the fact that Peltola hasn't yet been sworn in, which seems to have been the source of some well-intentioned but premature updates, and which would be an excessive level of detail here.

On the bottom, there is a spot on the page where party representation in the House is shown. This spot says there are only 2 vacancies, but there are 3 vacancies now, with the resignation of Representative Ted Deutch of Florida. 206.246.7.180 (talk) 13:30, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".
The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response.

"Seven states have only one representative: Alaska, Delaware, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Vermont, and Wyoming." This is false as of 10/11/2022. Montana now has 2 representatives. This line should be changed to: "Six states have only one representative: Alaska, Delaware, North Dakota, South Dakota, Vermont, and Wyoming." 192.222.131.25 (talk) 18:42, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
