A number of noncitizens appear to have been missed in the 2020 census
Almost a fifth of noncitizens found in the administrative records had addresses that couldn’t be matched in the 2020 census, suggesting that “a significant fraction of noncitizens” were missed, according to the U.S. Census Bureau report released Friday. By comparison, that same figure was 5% for citizens.
The simulation was a test to see how good a job administrative records perform in counting historically undercounted groups like racial and ethnic minorities, renters and young children. Its results actually bumped up the numbers for Hispanic and Black residents, two groups who were undercounted in the 2020 census, respectively, by 8.3 million people and 2.8 million people, the report said.

But first, they have to sort out what happened in 2020. Secretary of State Mac Warner and Attorney General Patrick Morrisey say they remain concerned that President Joe Biden's victory wasn't legitimate. But repeated investigations, audits and court cases have found no evidence of widespread voter fraud or improper counting that could have changed the results. Even in West Virginia, where Donald Trump twice carried every county, some voters see 2020 gripes as nothing more than a GOP check-off. They're more concerned about school choice, gun rights, abortion and jobs.
