Perilous time for the 2020 census. Troubling, there were reports indicating career officials at the Census Bureau warned the trump about significant problems that will delay the delivery of census data to late january or early february. After these reports became public, the director of the census, dr. Steven billingham, issued a Public Statement confirming problems were found, but provided no details. These developments were particularly troubling because they were not reported to our committee before we write about them in the press or before the census director made his Public Statement.

We also requested documents repaired for the department of commerce, including the commerce secretary
Are my own and not to be attributed to the trustees. Of the census accuracy is deeper and more complex than the latest chapter on anomalies. These are problems yet to be found reveal the consequences and risks. To help illustrate the challenges of 2020 census accuracy, i start with Research Conducted by Diana Elliott and i last year to explore 2020 census outcomes. This was precovid. We chose three risk scenarios and used Census Bureau research to simulate 2020 counts. The most optimistic scenario mimicked the performance of the 2010 census, which came in 0001 of population estimate.

Stated differently, had the pandemic never happened, people of color are historically undercounted, and our wonderful nation, have become more racially and ethnically diverse over the past 10 years. While this 2010 census was accurate for the total u. S. Population, it came at the expense of

We started the program asking viewers about the president s remarks last night on facebook. I dont know if youve had a chance to see any of that. Any reaction to that . Youre talking about the 45minute diatribe rant about the election . Yes. Well, look, the president has painted himself into a corner here. Theres been a complete divorce from reality.

So far 306 electoral votes for joe biden, 232 for President Trump. The popular vote standing at 81 million for joe biden and 74 million for President Trump. Here is the headline reporting in the Washington Post. Trump escalates election attacks in 46 minute video rant. They say trumps video represented his most comprehensive remarks about the election and came after he spent the month since the election hidden from public view say for a handful of appearances and a call in on fox news channel.

Just just hate and donald trump to literally in my opinion break this election in his face in joe bidens favor selecting somebody like joe biden who was in 5th place during t
