The Sunbelt Shift refers to the demographic and political trend where people moved from the Northeast and Midwest to the South and West, increasing congressional representation in those regions, not reducing it. It did not peak just before World War II but continued into the late 20th and early 21st centuries, and it was not reversed in the 2010 Census.
