Rep. Troy Nehls says the errors cost Texas a congressional seat, vows an investigation, calling the miscount “deeply concerning for the legitimacy of our Democracy.”
The U.S. Census Bureau admits it undercounted populations in five Republican-led states while overcounting people in six Democrat-leaning states, a disparity one congressman says cost Texas a congressional seat to which it was entitled.
Rep. Troy Nehls (R-Texas) told Just the News he is demanding answers from the population-counting agency because the disparities uncovered by the 2020 post-enumeration survey show errors in counting large enough to impact the tools of U.S. representative democracy, such as electoral votes and congressional apportionment.
“The numbers don’t lie,” Nehls said. “Texas was undercounted by 2%, which means we were cheated out of an additional seat in Congress. And four other Republican states were as well. As a result, these red states have less representation in Congress, fewer votes in the Electoral College, and therefore receive less federal funding.
The Census Bureau earlier this year said a post-count analysis foud the 2020 census undercounted populations in five red states — Arkansas, Florida, Mississippi, Tennesee and Texas — as well as one traditionally Democrat state, Illinois. Likewise, the agency found it overcounted populations in six blue states — Hawaii, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New York, Rhode Island and Joe Biden’s home state of Delaware — as well as two GOP-led states, Ohio and Utah.
Census officials acknowledged they were disappointed by the accuracy rate of the 2020 count, which they said was impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. None of the under and overcounts can be fixed for apportionment, but the survey will be sued to try to make the 2030 count more precise, they added.
For Democrats to CHEAT Elections AGAIN like 2020 COUP !!!!
Well, if Republicans want better results they should work on educating their constituents. As things stand in recent years, MAGA voters aren’t any good at math, science, reading, etc., so why would you hope for better results? Of course if they got the education needed, they wouldn’t vote for such ridiculous candidates anyway, so either way the results will be the same.
You will see your errors 10:19 very soon
What a crooked country we live in. It’s getting to be worse than any of the communistic third world countries,. What a shame……….all thanks to Obiden and the democrats.
In case you haven’t figured it out I’ll give you a hint and it’s pretty obvious, who’s running the show! they lie! they steal! they deceive! they meet in secret! Deny GOD! DENY truth! They molest children, they abort babies, They celebrate immorality, homosexuality. They war, death to all is their ulitimate goal. Or for you to hate yourself as much as they hate themselves and you..a vortex of hate is what they have manifested. They are like cockroach warriors for the luciferian insanity. Our freedoms and our constitution is God-given. What they promise,a marxist utopia is satanic. So ask yourself the way things are going do you think our leaders are being guided by GOD’s LIGHT! works and truths?
Why are they televising The deadly parade killing, like OJs trial? instead of the Epstein trial ?
