That makes sense, but the Constitution called for the count of people in the census, not citizens. After all, slaves, definitely not citizens were specifically included in the count for representation. (Yes, I know, 60%, but counted nonetheless.)

Your problem is that the Constitution apportions the House based on the number of PERSONS.

Whatever SHOULD be, the counting of PERSONS is what is the law.
