2020 Presidential Candidates

A recent analysis of state by state polling says that Trump has the electoral votes to win again. It doesn't matter if 90% of California and NYC vote for Trump if Harris loses Ohio, Florida, and Michigan.

Link, F**d. You also think the purpose of the census is to count citizens, so let's see what was really said.

63% of American citizens want the citizenship question on the census. Even 55% of Americans want it on the census. Only loony lefties think it is a bad idea to see how many citizens America has compared to residents, both legal and illegal. Are you always so uncivil with people who don't share your beliefs? I welcome different opinions while you seem to think anyone who disagrees with you should be automatically insulted. You aren't the best representative of leftist America.

1. LINK!
2. I didn't ask you for poll results about the idiot king's illegal census question. I pointed out that you don't know what the census is for.

The post from NPR has little to do with the TOPIC: 2020 PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES.
However I felt that Brandon would appreciate the history of this "illegal census question".

The 55% is for Hispanic Americans. I find it interesting that foul mouthed Brandon never has an intelligent response, just screams about quotes. You can look it up if you really cared. It is not even a partisan source. Google it, even undisciplined 3rd graders know how to use it these days.

Didn't RT cover the fact that the Supreme Court has prevented the question from being asked until the administration can come up with an justification that isn't demonstrably a lie?

F**d, pointing out that the constitution isn't a popularity contest based on polling is an intelligent response. The purpose of the census, as stated in the constitution, is to count all residents. The purpose of the question, as determined by the Supreme Court, is to discourage Hispanics from being counted.
End of subject.

Brandon,
No it is not the end of the discussion on the subject of the census. The Supreme Court did not invalidate any law, the manner in which the census is conducted is not law, it is custom. and has varied throughout the history of our Country. The citizenship question, was not on the short form in 2010 as the Commerce Dept dropped the long form, which had the citizenship question.
Will await Mr. Trump's Executive Order.
One question was does your reference "F**d" mean?
On another point you might wish to change the avatar that you use prior to the "Red Flag" law coming into effect in 2020.
