Anyone surprised? Under Trump the census undercounted minorities and ovsrcounted white Americans to the tune of 19M. Republicans cheating to the end.

2020 Census Undercounted U.S. Population by Nearly 19 Million


The 2020 census undercounted the country’s population by 18.8 million people, the Census Bureau said on Thursday, acknowledging that the count had underrepresented Black, Latino and Indigenous residents.

At the same time, the census overcounted the number of white and Asian residents, the bureau said.

The 2020 census faced a series of challenges. The coronavirus pandemic shut down much of the count just as it was beginning in April 2020, forcing the bureau to extend its work by nearly two months. Later in the year, wildfires in the West and coastal hurricanes upended the bureau’s work just as door-knockers were fanning out to survey millions of households that had not filled out their forms.

The Trump administration later moved up the deadline to finish the counting, raising concerns about an undercount. The problems led many experts, including some senior Census Bureau officials, to worry that the final count would be fatally flawed.

If they didn't count them, how do they know?

It's a shame that by undercounting those groups won't make the country any less of an emerging shithole.

Of course they did, anything to disparage Trump. After all Biden picked the director, Robert Santos.

Good, another agency that the gop can gut like a fish funding-wise in 2023.....By then we will be in a full blown recession so austerity measures will be needed anyway.....A 50% cut should do it.

Not like all census counts have anomalies. Not sure for your reasoning for pointing fingers.

The PES data show that:

• The Black or African American alone or in combination population had a statistically significant undercount of 3.30%. This is not statistically different from the 2.06% undercount in 2010.
• The Hispanic or Latino population had a statistically significant undercount rate of 4.99%. This is statistically different from a 1.54% undercount in 2010.
• American Indian or Alaska Native alone or in combination populations living on reservations show a statistically significant undercount rate of 5.64%. This was not statistically different from a 4.88% undercount in 2010. The American Indian or Alaska Native population alone or in combination living in American Indian areas, but not living on reservations, was not statistically different from zero in 2020 or 2010.
• The non-Hispanic White alone population had a statistically significant overcount rate of 1.64%. This is statistically different from an overcount of 0.83% in 2010.
• The Asian alone or in combination population had an overcount rate of 2.62%. This is statistically different from 0.00% in 2010.
• The Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander alone or in combination population had an estimated overcount rate of 1.28%. This rate is not different from an estimated 1.02% overcount rate in 2010. Both are not statistically different from zero.

Your blatant partisanship made you foolish since Trump has ZERO authority over the Census Bureau itself can only nominate a Director as shown in Wikipedia:


"The Director of the Bureau of the Census is the chief administrator of the United States Census Bureau (USCB). The officeholder is appointed by the President of the United States and confirmed by the United States Senate and assisted by the Deputy Director of the United States Census Bureau. The current director is Robert Santos."

and,

The Authority of the Bureau is codified by CONGRESS in Title 13 and 26 of the United States Code.

The United States Census Bureau,

The modern U.S. Census Bureau has been shaped by two pieces of twentieth century legislation: the 1902 legislation that made the Census Office a permanent agency and the 1954 legislation that combined the existing laws governing the Census Bureau's statistical programs and codified them in Title 13. Title 13 is the section of U.S. Code that governs Census Bureau activities to this day.

Protection of Title 13 Data​

Title 13​

The Census Bureau is bound by Title 13 of the United States Code. These laws not only provide authority for the work we do, but also provide strong protection for the information we collect from individuals and businesses.
Title 13 provides the following protections to individuals and businesses:

• Private information is never published. It is against the law to disclose or publish any private information that identifies an individual or business such, including names, addresses (including GPS coordinates), Social Security Numbers, and telephone numbers.
• The Census Bureau collects information to produce statistics. Personal information cannot be used against respondents by any government agency or court.
• Census Bureau employees are sworn to protect confidentiality. People sworn to uphold Title 13 are legally required to maintain the confidentiality of your data. Every person with access to your data is sworn for life to protect your information and understands that the penalties for violating this law are applicable for a lifetime.
• Violating the law is a serious federal crime. Anyone who violates this law will face severe penalties, including a federal prison sentence of up to five years, a fine of up to $250,000, or both.

Trump has no authority over it.

Black people have to first answer the door to a white government employee before they can be counted, but as we know, many blacks either refused to answer the door or they told the census workers to fuck off. Antisocial cultures dont serve the lives of those in that culture very well.
