“He should have immediately denounced the mob when he saw what was unfolding.” “These facts require immediate actions by President Trump,” he continued. A few Republicans defended him, but most others simply argued that a rush to impeach Mr. Trump without a hearing or an investigation raised constitutional questions. With Democrats controlling the House, Mr. Trump is expected to become the first American president to be impeached twice.

On Tuesday, a federal inspector general questioned an order to deliver the estimates before Mr. Trump leaves office, after whistle-blowers warned that the rush would imperil their accuracy.

"The delay suggests that the census bureau needs more time to ensure the accuracy of census numbers for all states," said Terri Ann Lowenthal, a former congressional staffer who specializes in census issues. The Commerce Department oversees the Census Bureau, which conducts the once-a-decade headcount of every U.S. resident. "For the Census Bureau, goals No. The Census Bureau hasn't publicly revealed how it plans to determine who is in the country illegally since the Supreme Court last year prohibited a citizenship question from being added to the census questionnaire. The Office of Inspector General said the Census Bureau failed to complete 355,000 re-interviews of households to verify that their information was accurate.

Although the Census Bureau is working to produce a final report to President Donald Trump by the Dec. 31 deadline, advocates and even some census staffers have expressed doubt that it will be able to do so. "And we have to listen to the data scientists that say we need more time and ensure that politics, politicians and partisans are not allowed to interrupt their work and manipulate the data. He said the anomalies were routine, but media reports suggested that data scientists within the bureau are fretting about getting the all-too-important decennial count right. Demonstrators rally at the Supreme Court on April 23, 2019, to protest a proposal to add a citizenship question to the 2020 census. The Census Bureau said in a statement that the public should have confidence in the data because it is not only using career professionals within the bureau, but also working with outside experts to evaluate the data, and because it will release detailed data metrics for the first time.

The delay would prevent President Trump from excluding unauthorized immigrants from the decennial count of the population that redistributes seats in the House of Representatives and votes in the Electoral College. It concluded that census officials have identified at least 15 anomalies in the data that affect more than one million census records. Census Bureau Director Steven Dillingham said in mid-November that anomalies had been discovered in processing. If Mr. Trump can’t relay the figures before he leaves office Jan. 20, President-elect Joe Biden would handle it.

Snags in processing the results of the 2020 census may delay its first results long enough to prevent President Trump from carrying out his plan to exclude unauthorized immigrants from the population-based calculation that distributes seats in the House of Representatives and votes in the Electoral College. In a written statement Thursday, Census Bureau Director Steven Dillingham cited “anomalies” discovered in processing, which began after counting ended Oct. 15. “I am directing the Census Bureau to utilize all resources...
