I worked for the 1990 census. I was a crewleader and trained about 35 enumerators.. Those are the people that went out in the street and counted and interviewed the people. Some of these people didn't know how to dig a hole with a shovel.. I had to choose 17 (?) people of the 35.

There was this older guy that just couldn't get it.. I trained him personally and also had the best enumerator take him in the street and hold his hand. I didn't choose him and he complained and the powers that be forced me to hire him. His work was always wrong and effed up.. So none of this surprises me..

Would this have anything with redistricting or assigning seats in congress?

Should apportionment be determined on a census of legal citizens or on the population as a whole?

Federal dollars have always been tied to a population count, so when areas are counted less than others, then they have lesser access to the dollars.


Then we can be assured the areas were overcounted.

We made up votes so let’s make up people to get the districting changes we want.

Can't get an ID to vote, can't get on the internet, can't fill out a census.

These things are not that difficult.

If someone is too stupid to fill out a census form or too sorry to even answer the door and let a census worker fill it out for them, then frick ‘em.

Can our F-ing joke of a government count anything correctly? It's a fairly basic skill. Sesame Street level shite.

No problem voting by mail but returning census by mail is too challenging.

Election was rigged
