Georgia's congressional districts

Georgia's Congressional districts since 2013.[1]

Georgia is represented in the United States House of Representatives by 14 elected congressmen, each campaigning and receiving votes in only one district of the 14.

After the 2000 Census, the State of Georgia was divided into 13 Congressional Districts, increasing from 11 due to reapportionment. The state was redistricted again in 2005, and 2007, although the number of districts remained 13. In 2013, the number of representatives increased again with rising population to 14 members.
