Does the Federal Gov. appropriate more money to a State if the population is larger? Are Federal Grants involved? It seems Dems. are fighting for more population in cities.
If you can't tell that people are illegal, they obviously must be counted as citizens for apportionment of representatives. That is the whole purpose of the Census.
Dilute citizens with illegals when carving out districts, and dilute citizens with illegals' votes on every election day.
