| A lot of people just view the census as a number crunching exercise the government does every 10 years to count how many people are here, but it truly is the central function of deciding electoral power in our country. | |
| Because everybody goes and votes, but the reality is the Electoral College, that is how the electoral votes get awarded for presidential elections. | |
| The electoral votes decide how many members of Congress come from each state. | |
| The electoral power also decides how federal funding gets allocated and distributed. | |
| So the census is a highly politicized operation in government, and unfortunately, I think the bureaucrats and the left have weaponized it to disproportionately hand out more electoral power to states that are sanctuary states, that are blue states, that want to bring in as many illegal aliens, as many foreigners as possible. | |
| And I think that runs very counter to our Constitution and way of life here in the United States. | |
| So we believe ultimately states like California, Illinois, New York, Florida probably disproportionately has some additional seats based on illegal aliens in the state. | |
| But at the end of the day, there would be a 20 to 30 electoral vote swing to Republican states if we're only including U.S. citizens in the electoral distribution. | |
| And it makes sense. | |
| Only United States citizens have the right to vote. | |
| Our Constitution starts off with we the people of the United States. | |
| If you're truly going to allow people illegally in the United States to be included in this electoral power, foreign enemies could take significant advantage of this. | |
| They could flood people into certain parts of the United States just during census season in order to try to shift votes. | |
| And you're aware of elections we've had in modern history. |
