Guess who will be “helping out” with the 2010 Census? ACORN!

The U.S. Census is supposed to be void of any politics and political influence. Doesn’t look like the 2010 Census under Hussein Obama dictatorship will keep it that way. ACORN, among a bunch of other left-wing groups will be “participating” in next year’s count, raising concerns about the politicization of the decennial survey. From Fox News:

The Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now signed on as a national partner with the U.S. Census Bureau in February 2009 to assist with the recruitment of the 1.4 million temporary workers needed to go door-to-door to count every person in the United States — currently believed to be more than 306 million people.

A U.S. Census “sell sheet,” an advertisement used to recruit national partners, says partnerships with groups like ACORN “play an important role in making the 2010 Census successful,” including by “help[ing] recruit census workers.”

The bureau is currently employing help from more than 250 national partners, including TARGET and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), to assist in the hiring effort.

But ACORN’s partnership with the 2010 Census is worrisome to lawmakers who say past allegations of fraud should raise concerns about the organization
