“The Census is similar to concerns about cybersecurity in elections, in as far as it sort of gets to the core of democratic values and how votes are proportioned through the Census and collected through elections infrastructure,” Nussbaum said. “The big difference between the Census and elections is the Census is not administered at the local level the way elections are.”"
