So you’d be ok with Karl Rove running the census?
I wouldn’t be okay with him running the census because he is a Republican. Republicans don’t share my beliefs, which is why I don’t like them in office. I wouldn’t mind democrats running it because I’m a democrat. Surprise, Surprise. That’s all that really is. Regardless though, nothing is going to change about the census, unless they implement some kind of real change, like sampling, or redistricting, which again, I wouldn’t mind because it would be more beneficial in counting the urban population. I think republicans are just afraid that there are a lot more people in “ghetto america” which need help, but because they don’t fall in their spectrum of upper-middle to upper class citizenry they don’t give a rats *edited* about. What better way to ignore a spectrum of our population than to not count them in a census. At least with sampling they make up for miss counts with a close estimation
