WASHINGTON – Five states — New York, California, Texas, Arizona and Florida — are perilously close to losing out on congressional seats because of lackluster participation in the U.S. census.

The five were average or below average in mailing back 10-question census forms when compared to other states, trailing by as many as 5 percentage points, according to the final census mail-in tally released Wednesday.

This is why BO isn't worried about 2012.

A very good question is why he doesn't seem at all worried about the 2012 election and a bit scary. You wonder what he thinks he has up his wicked sleeves. A major crisis just before the elections so that Martial Law is called? An outright coup d'etat? Has he subversively taken over many of the vote counting facilities? I don't think just the poor and probably manipulated census is by any means the whole answer.

I pray that The LORD has mercy and intervenes for us at every level because if He doesn't we are in trouble. The devil himself cannot succeed in the face of The LORD.

...we're a small rural community i'd say at lest 30% didn't get a form.

What are the odds that the folks in Washington are deliberately trying to undercount some areas, and overcount others?

Government has been reporting for the last 6-months or so that we may be loosing one (1) of our representatives on the federal level . Makes you wonder how they knew what the head count was gonna be.

I'd rather have a reliably patriotic state pick up those seats and FL lose one or two than have an accurate count of illegals in FL that gives them the extra seats.

But from the article, it appears that Oregon and Minnesota are poised to pick up these seats :(
