Abstract: The census is an official count on the population of the United States. The United States Constitution (Article I, Section 2) requires that a census be conducted every 10 years to apportion the seats in the U.S. House of Representatives among the states. The Census Bureau is legally required to provide redistricting data to public officials in a non-partisan manner no later than one year from Census Day. (For example, 2010 Census redistricting data are due by April 2, 2011.) It is crucial that the 2010 Census count people once, only once, and in the right place.
