Census and electoral count

There is a controversial question regarding the upcoming 2020 census and asks if the person is a citizen. The constitution requires a census every ten years but does not specify what questions should be asked. If there is not a distinction between citizens and non-citizens then all are counted. This means that non-citizens will indirectly vote in the presidential elections because of the electoral college. Votes in the electoral college are determined based on population. In additions many government benefits are based on total population and this affords states with large numbers of illegal aliens/undocumented immigrants additional government funds. Mandatory federal funds to states is about $500 billion per year or about $1,500 per person. A state like California with an estimated 3 million illegals gets $4.5 billion for these people.
