re: #875 ggt

What purpose would having control of the census serve?

Just joining the party here. The heavyweights here have already explained the main aspects of control but I would like to add one that I read that really bothers me. Rather than count actual heads, which I believe is what the constitution reads, the white house may be able to sort of statistically extrapolate body count from a limited count. If you know anything about statistics a more appropriate word would be “manipulate”. In this process illegal aliens would be counted as US citizens. On the other hand if they were required to show up for a physical head count many, if not all, would not show up. If the dems could use illegal aliens to gerrymander it would be a huge advantage to them.
