Illinois undercounted in 2020 census, actually recorded largest population ever

over the previous ten years — when in reality it added more than a quarter of a million people and swelled to its largest population ever.

Missing more than 250,000 Illinoisans is roughly the equivalent of not counting anyone in Aurora — Illinois’ second largest city — and the entire downstate city of Decatur.cheered the news that put Illinois’ population above 13 million for the first time ever. In a statement, Illinois House Speaker Emanuel "Chris" Welch said the corrected count "confirms what Democrats have been saying all along: Illinois is growing, Illinois is thriving, and Illinois has so much to offer."

Since the 2020 census incorrectly reported Illinois lost over 18,000 residents — or a drop of 0.14% — the state lost a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives, something that has happened every census since 1970. The initial 2020 census reported Illinois’ population was 12,812,508. But either way, subsequent statistical sampling from the census, such as Thursday’s determinations of over- and undercounting, can’t be used for reapportioning seats in Congress, thanks to a Supreme Court ruling in 1999.

Sooo whoever is counting…are you miscounting votes too? Like wtf
