UPCOMING CENSUS IMPACTS FAIR COUNTY REPRESENTATION –

Following the 2020 U.S. Census, a priority for many county governments will be the requirement to redraw district boundary lines. Data gathered from the U.S. Census will show population changes. This means some districts will gain residents, and some will lose them. District boundaries will be redrawn to ensure each district has the same number of people so that each voter has an equal say. Participation in the U.S. Census count has long-lasting impact on all levels of government. (FarmWeekNow)
