"All but one of the states overcounted is a blue state, and all but one of the undercounted states is red.
"Those costly errors will distort congressional representation and the Electoral College. It means that when the Census Bureau reapportioned the House of Representatives, Florida was cheated out of two additional seats it should have gotten; Texas missed out on another seat; Minnesota and Rhode Island each kept a representative they shouldn’t have; and Colorado was awarded a new member of the House it didn’t deserve.
"These harmful errors also mean billions in federal funds will be misallocated. Funding for many federal programs is distributed to the states based on population. Overcounted states will now receive a larger share of federal funds than they are entitled to, at the expense of the undercounted states."

To Eber were born two sons: the name of the one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided, and his brother's name was Joktan.
Genesis 10:25
Strong says Peleg means "earthquake", but that seems extremely unlikely. It is the same spelling and pronunciation as a Hebrew word for "stream", which is a natural division in the land. The verse itself seems to define Peleg's name, by using the word for "divided", which is palag, spelled the same but pronounced differently. The scholarly consensus seems to be that his name means "division" and that makes the most sense in context as well.
