Change the number of total representatives present in the house to 435, and number of democrats to 213 please (Suozzi was inaugurated today). Tyrant15 (talk) 00:35, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
- Done I updated the number of democrats to 213 and reduced vacancies to 3. I'm not sure where you're seeing fewer than 435 representatives. Jamedeus (talk) 01:06, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

The change needed is the number of vacant House Seats which should be three instead of four. The bubbles showing the house vacant seats is correct with three and the number of Republican seats is 219 and not 218. 219 + 213 + 3 = 435. 2600:1014:B138:E9D1:0:E:5A5:9401 (talk) 10:37, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
- Not done: Ken Buck has made his resignation effective today (22 March). Personally, I'd rather wait for a source to confirm the resignation, but given that a sudden change is unlikely, I think it's unnecessary to revert over this. Presumably someone will also move the mention of him at List of current members of the United States House of Representatives#Vacancies out of the comment later today.

- He doesn't actually leave until April. Bjoh249 (talk) 21:12, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
Updates required
editHouse numbers need to be updated to Republican:217, Democratic:212, Vacant:6. I've tried, but couldn't do it. GoodDay (talk) 22:34, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
- Not done: The current tally is set correctly, per House member data. Accoroding to the official House casualty list, Mike Gallagher is set to resign only on April 26th. JohnNatalis (talk) 23:12, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
Question about footnote
editPresuming that Mike Gallagher's resignation has taken effect is footnote [A] still needed? (Sorry if this is a silly question) Hamadi31 (talk) 23:08, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
- Closed seems like someone removed it. Hamadi31 (talk) 00:44, 30 May 2024 (UTC)

Fill in one of the vacancies dots with red because a new republican got sworn in yesterday 73.22.56.65 (talk) 17:55, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. M.Bitton (talk) 21:48, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
