The Constitution mentions Persons not citizens when referring to the census. Where the Constitution makes a distinction based on citizenship (President or members of Congress) it uses the word citizen.

Compromise and count them as 3/5 of a person.

Ya know? That 3/5 of a (slave) person count compromise would have been unnecessary if for the purposes of setting congressional seats the census only counted voter eligible residents...

What is necessary is NOT to remove them from the Census. What is important is to disqualify them for purposes of congressional reapportionment. Nice. Very concise. It took me longer to say the same thing.

“I thought SCOTUS ruled that that question couldn’t be asked in the census.”
That was a procedural decision. The court held the Trump administration had not followed the proper administrative procedure in issuing that regulation.

"Representatives and direct Taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to their respective Numbers, which shall be determined by adding to
the whole Number of free Persons, including those bound to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three fifths of all other Persons".
What it SHOULD be, and what it IS, are not the same thing.

The fact that not counting illegals should be an automatic, logical response but one that has to be pursued against opposition exposes the degree of stupididy of our elected officials. It's not stupidity it's pure deliberate evil, they are often confused one for the other...

Well said.
And thanks for using the word "myriad" correctly.

This is vital. States that coddle illegal aliens like California are stealing tens of billions of dollars from the taxpayers of other states via the federal government and they are stealing an estimated TWENTY seats in the US House of Representatives....and therefore 20 electoral votes for president.
If Illegal Aliens were not counted, the Democrats would find it extremely difficult to ever win the US House and would struggle mightily in presidential elections. 20 electoral votes is slightly more than the equivalent of flipping either Pennsylvania or Illinois.

If they are truly “migrants” like the left insists they should absolutely not count. A migrant by definition is a temporary resident.

I voted for Trump twice (to young to vote in 2016). I wonder how many Congressional Districts will be changing from blue states to red states...

I think they need to be counted. Not included for Congressional apportionment, but it’d be good to know how many there actually are.
