President Donald Trump has called for a new census to address errors found in the 2020 census numbers, with a Rasmussen poll indicating that 57% of likely US voters support this initiative. The proposed census aims to count only citizens, excluding illegal immigrants, a stance backed by a majority of respondents. Additional poll data from Rasmussen shows that 52% of likely voters support excluding illegal immigrants from census counts, while 36% oppose it. The call for a new census has sparked discussions on its potential impact on congressional apportionment, with some noting that previous apportionment figures announced in April 2021 were based on the existing census data under the Biden administration. Meanwhile, there are concerns about Trump's declining support among Hispanic voters. Other related polling data highlights voter concerns about mail-in voting fraud and the practice of "debanking," with many supporting legislative action to address these issues. The debate over the census and its implications continues to be a focal point in discussions about representation and electoral integrity.

Who did the census which the congressional apportionment was based on though? Biden didn’t just pull those figures out of his bum on April 26, 2021. Where did they come from? https://t.co/hYQ4E1uBMA
