The Rust Belt lost a crucial component of its political clout, as the Census Bureau released the first numbers from its 2000 census.
"A crucial piece of the Rust Belt's political clout headed south Thursday, as the U.S. Census Bureau released the first numbers from its 2000 count of the nation's population. The numbers show that for the first time, the Sun Belt outstrips the Northeast and Midwest in population. And for that reason, starting in 2002, the states stretching south and west from Virginia to California for the first time will have more representatives in the House of Representatives than the Northeast and Midwest."
