But they weaseled out of this by removing the Citizenship question a few years ago.
Since then the Blue States have been sticking it to The Red States.
This is the Sole Purpose Of Sanctuary Status.
This is why they are trying to get an Activist Judge to Overturn this Legal Precedent!

Selective quotes, how commie of you. And now as they say for the rest of the story.
14th Amendment Section 2
Section 2. Representatives shall be apportioned among the several States according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each State, excluding Indians not taxed. But when the right to vote at any election for the choice of electors for President and Vice President of the United States, Representatives in Congress, the Executive and Judicial officers of a State, or the members of the Legislature thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such State, being twenty-one years of age, and citizens of the United States, or in any way abridged, except for participation in rebellion, or other crime, the basis of representation therein shall be reduced in the proportion which the number of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male citizens twenty-one years of age in such State.
Simple concept, if you're not a citizen you can't vote and should not be counted for representation.

I will give you the same advice I gave the other wingnuts. Go back and get your GED and learn what the word "BUT" is used for in a paragraph.
The first sentence says to count everyone in the state.
The "BUT" sentences say that criminals and non-citizens, i.e. "NON-VOTERS" are reduced from that total number.
