So I would be very cautious about doing that, including excluding noncitizens from the census to make sure that's not figured into Electoral College. Yeah, you know, so that's a really interesting question. That piece has always bothered me a bit that Noncitizens are factored into the Electoral College. Now I will say that at least the last study I saw that was done on that the changes would be very, very minor. It may be like one seat in California, something like that. (38:44–38:49)
