#1 Meanwhile, several couties here in WA state reported numerous instances of citizens receiving duplicate forms; we did, but being a good guy, i tossed the second in the wood stove. no reason to bolster the numbers for this terminally blue state.....

#2 Or you could say census mail results could be good news for 45 states that do not harbor Illegal immigrants. These states are on the verge of having congressional seats returned to them that were stolen by illegal aliens. Who knows, photo IDs could be required for voting next.

#3 And then there are districts that did not even receive the forms at all.

#4 Odd. The local newspaper reported a week or two ago that Hawaii had one of the the lowest return rates - about 60% I think. How odd that the Democratic State of Hawaii isn't listed as being in jeopardy of losing a seat....

#5 In CA I'm sure you'd have to print them in Spanish, Vietnamese, Swahili and every other language known to man if you wanted to get many back.
The 5% extra could easily be made up of illegals, parole violators, wanted felons, unregistered sex offenders and other valuable members of society.

#9 Of course, the whole exercise was to gerrymander districts.

I have no form.

Blessings be, they are incompetent. Ergo the numbers will be strange.
I have doubt to whether this should "count" in the Library of Congress. Even the PDA's they use do not work. Missing information, roads, and communities.
"aww pee"
Was it Solomon or David that had counsel with God about census? Whats all that about?

I am certain this "King" never sought counsel.

#10 Isn't bambi's white house running this - I'm sure they'll get the results they want.

#11 "Illegal immigrants"

Words matter, people.

Aliens (non-U.S. citizens) who come here legally are immigrants. Those here illegally are illegal aliens.

I will not give illegals the respect of the word "immigrant."

#12 I'm from California and I think I received the census form on April 15th. I was shocked because I thought I had been spared. I just mailed it yesterday.
