It won't matter what the census says, those who get the data inform us of the results so maps can be re-drawn. Who controls that? Oh mostly republicans.

Who enforces civil and voting rights? The Justice Dept. Who is going to control that? republicans.

So we have gripe, we take it to court to a judge. Who gets to appoint these judges? republicans.

Who will get to make the laws? republicans.

Who will be in charge of law enforcement? republicans.

Who will be in charge of the military? republicans.

Who will be in charge of our spy agencies? republicans.

Who gets to use drones? republicans.

Who gets access to nuclear weapons? republicans.

See a scary pattern here. Some one very bad once said, "It's not who votes, that wins. It's who counts the votes." And I botched the quote but I hope my point was made.
