Obama Gerrymander Attempt

According to law, the Commerce Department normally oversees the U.S. Census Bureau, but now the Obama administration is wresting control to the White House which seems to be an attempt to manipulate the redistricting of congressional seats.

The decennial census, taken every 10 years, generates maps and numbers then used to draw congressional districts. Ideally the census director conducts the count in a non-partisan manner under the authority granted by U.S. code to the secretary of Commerce.
