ONE WIN, ONE PENDING

by Bob Walsh


SCOTUS has ordered the Census Bureau to stop counting bodies and start compiling data, overturning a lower court ruling.  Trump has been adamant that he wants the census to meet its deadline.

There is still one pending, Trump's direction to the Census that undocumented Democrats, aka illegal aliens, shall NOT be used for apportionment purposes.  A three-judge panel from New York said the direction is unlawful.  The Trump administration has appealed that to SCOTUS.  

By leaving the deadline at December 31 that means the Trump administration will control the final apportionment count even if the Harris-Biden ticket wins in November.
