@lovelywarpedlemon I'm talking more along the lines of changing population numbers. In hard hit areas the numbers could be drastically different than the data they've input thus far.

@YukikoAmagi no, I mean those counties that have been counted may be fewer in population at the end of this thing. Accuracy will be compromised.

@Luchs Actually the census is pretty important right now. The states really need the funding to deal with this crisis and if the numbers aren’t correct then we’re not getting the funding needed.

@Jakefromnj I'm looking at more long term values to funding. In the middle of this crisis everything I hope is being expedited based on real-time requests. If they were going to disperse funds today based on population size for a state or county and they needed a count, they'd be using past data from the last census taken, as the current census hasn't been completed and compiled.

@Luchs our governor was actually begging people to get their census to get the right funding lol
