Michele Bachmann's 2010 Census form made public

[Minnesota Raindog]

Well, actually, most of the form she has vowed not to fill out can be filled out by anyone using public records, as 3rd Coast Research has done:

In a recent Washington Times article, Rep. Michele Bachmann said that she was so worried that information from next year's U.S. Census will be abused that she will not fill it out beyond very minimal information. She said, "I know for my family the only question we will be answering is how many people are in our home. We won't be answering any information beyond that, because the Constitution doesn't require any information beyond that." Bachmann added that the questions in the Census survey had become "very intricate, very personal."

To clarify Rep. Bachmann's understanding of the Census (and if necessary to assist the federal government's survey of her residence), Third Coast Research has completed a hypothetical census survey for the Congresswoman. The survey was completed using only publically available information, with citations to the source for each entry. Additionally, we completed only Rep. Bachmann's personal entry, and not anyone else who might be living in her household.

1. Thanks for posting - poor Michele

needs someone to define both "intricate" and "personal".

Among other words.
