Democrat friendly census errors

 NY Post:

Not content with the US Supreme Court’s perverse ruling blocking the Trump administration from reinstating a plainly constitutional citizenship question in the 2020 census and the Census Bureau’s apparent insubordination under Donald Trump, House Democrats recently passed legislation making it still more difficult for a future administration to reinstate the citizenship question and further insulating the agency from accountability to any president.

While the Ensuring a Fair and Accurate Census Act will do nothing of the sort, it does represent an inadvertent admission of failure in the last census — one of mammoth proportions and with massive political implications that you likely have not heard about.

The fact that such a failure has garnered minimal coverage and therefore public attention, while manifesting itself in the corruption of our republican system, demonstrates the disingenuousness of our ruling regime’s otherwise-hysterical “democracy defenders.”

The failure lies in the census count itself, which according to the Census Bureau’s own research was grossly inaccurate and therefore grossly unfair to the American people.

While the bureau, in conducting its Post-Enumeration Survey, only found a relatively small net undercount in the total US population of 0.24% — or approximately 780,000 people — it also found major overcount/undercount errors when it comes to the 50 states.

And strikingly, it appears one party seems to have overwhelmingly benefited from the errors. You can probably guess which.

As the Heritage Foundation’s Hans von Spakovsky, a former Federal Election Commissioner, has highlighted, per its post-2020 census survey, the Census Bureau significantly undercounted the populations of, in descending order by percentage: Arkansas, Tennessee, Mississippi, Florida, Illinois and Texas. So of states with errant population counts to the downside, all but one — Illinois — were red states. Conversely, eight states were overcounted, all but one of which — Utah — were blue.

Of the Democrat-dominated states that received overcounts, among the largest overcount errors could be found in none other than President Joe Biden’s home state of Delaware, whose population was overcounted by an estimated 5.4%.
...

According to von Spakovsky, as a result of the errors, historically blue Minnesota should have lost a congressional seat. Light-blue Colorado was awarded a new congressional seat to which it was not entitled. The same goes for bright-blue Rhode Island.

Meanwhile, red states Texas and Florida should have gained one and two seats respectively but did not.

To put the size of the miscounts in perspective, Minnesota’s population overcount of 3.8% equates to more than 215,000 people. Texas’ undercount of 1.9% equates to more than half a million people.
...

It looks like Democrats within the Census Bureau were trying to rig elections for the next 10 years.  That the courts let them get away with it is another crime.  When the GOP takes over Congress after the next election it should change this system and correct the census errors.
