So why on earth would you want such an organization involved in the census?

It's so obvious, it shouldn't require explanation.

Can you say "conspiracy to gerrymander"? This is getting more ridiculous daily.

•Wisconsin - Registering convicted felons.
•Ohio - ACORN tells Cuyahoga County’s election board that they can’t stop themselves from committing fraud.
•Indiana - Over a thousand new applications from ACORN appear to investigators to be fraudulent, and that should be no surprise, since Indianapolis now has 105% of its population registered to vote.
In Nevada, officials seemed surprised by the news that the Dallas Cowboys had moved en masse to the Silver State. The entire starting lineup registered to vote in Nevada, including Tony Romo, their quarterback. However, Secretary of State Ross Miller assured Nevadans that anyone posing as Terrell “TO” Owens would get a big NO if they tried to cast a vote.
I'll vouch for Nevada's fraud; I had to tell "Obama activists" to get off my property or I shoot them 3 separate times...they were here as thick as mosquitoes in July.

Guess you never heard of "Secret Ballot". There are plenty of fraud charges that have stuck, google it.
