And There's No Follow-Thru

Seems that the population within conservative counties across the country are returning their census forms at a higher rate than anyone else.

Here’s how we did our (somewhat unscientific) analysis. We took the 20 most conservative counties on this list compiled by the Daily Caller, which uses a variety of criteria, including voting patterns, legislative history, and local culture and tradition. We then looked at the percentages of households in those counties that have returned their census so far and compared them to the national average return rate, which is 56% right now.

Result: Of that 20, only six are returning their census forms at a rate below the national average. Thirteen are above, some by significant margins, and one is tied.

This leads me to question whether or not people like Michelle Bachman and Glenn Beck are going to spin this or simply ignore it. After all, these are the two loudest voices in the "anti-Census" movement. Surely, Michelle Malkin and Erick Erickson have their own loony points of view when it comes to the Census, but my question is still this - this is the same form we all filled out 10 years ago. Where was the paranoia of the conservative movement then?
