Census workers to knock on doors due to low returns

State Census workers are getting ready to knock on some doors.

State officials say census workers will begin visiting homes on May 1st to collect data from people who did not return their Census forms.

Bridgeport, New Haven and Hartford are just some of the cities that had low returns. Hartford Mayor Eddie Perez says failing to complete the forms costs money. “In the event that we are not counted in the census we’re going to be paying for the next 10 years,” said Mayor Perez.

Governor Rell is asking people to be careful of scam artists claiming to be Census Workers. Rell says all workers will be properly identified and will never ask to enter your home.

It's laughable. The Census returns are low - not enough voters I guess. How will they keep track of the hundreds they want in Arizona to come thru the border. Meet the with a Census form?

I bet 50% of the census forms won't be returned by Conservatives. The form asks nothing about politics, religion, etc. Rather it asks for information the Federal Govt. already has on you.

So, maybe the frightened conservatives who are convinced Obama isn't American, that he wants "death pane's" and to put conservatives into concentration camps should just calm down and start living in reality.
