The census is what tells us how many people we have in this nation and in each of our states. How ever it is hard to find out exactly how many people we do have if not everyone completes the tasks of filling a census ballet out.

According to NY times ¨For the first time, it will be conducted largely online instead of by mail.¨  They have decided to conduct the census for 2020 online instead of paper. I believe it is a better decision because you have those people that wont fill them out just because they don´t want to go to where ever it is and fill it out. However now though they can do it on their phone or tablet or their laptop now. I honestly think they will get more done by the internet. 

Still according to NY times John H. Thompson “The career staff at the Census Bureau are really, really good and really committed to an accurate count,” he said. “They will do the best job they can for the money and public cooperation they get.”
Still, he added, “There’s an issue with funding, and there’s an issue with operational readiness. And there’s an issue with accuracy.”  He feels as if they will do a good job and not have many problems but their will be some difficulties, but like everything there is difficulties with anything and everything. I honestly think moving it to online is probably the best idea and we will get a better outcome of it being on the internet.
