Based on court precedents and the [[Census Act]], the Secretary of Commerce has power to conduct the census in whatever way he deems will be most accurate, including the use of adjustment methods.
Nearly two decades ago, Groves was involved with the census bureau from 1990 to 1992, where Dr. Bryant (director of the 1990 survey) appointed him associate director of statistical design. Favoring the use of sampling in the census, Groves' direction of the census may be unconstitutional under the [[Actual Enumeration]] requirement of Article I.
