Notations On Our World (Special #California Edition): As Redistricting Begins.......

 

STATEMENT ON NEW CENSUS RELEASE DATE

"Yesterday the U.S. Census Bureau announced its plans to release 2020 census results on Tuesday, August 12, 2021. This long awaited dataset will still need to be reformatted by the California Statewide Database to a usable format and reallocate those in state detention to their last known address, which is expected to take an additional month. In the meantime, the Commission continues to collect Communities of Interest information from Californians until we have the appropriate dataset to begin line drawing. We still intend on petitioning the California Supreme Court for a January 14, 2022 deadline to submit final maps."               

--Commission Chair Linda Akutagawa

Notations From the Grid (Weekly Edition): An #OutsiderWall On the Week That Was in Our World

 

A new week is before us here at the Daily Outsider.  It was a week that saw a new President being sworn in in Iran, Afghanistan was on the brink of collapse, fires continued to rage on in Turkey, Olympics came to a close in Tokyo and Paris took the flag for the Olympics in 2025.    COVID continued to wreck havoc on the World as Iran's Official Death Toll was at around 500 a day,  there were debates on mask mandates as many companies enacted mask mandates .   On the US political scene, the debate was continuing on the President's Infrastructure Proposal as US Governors Gavin Newsom in California was facing a ReCall Election Next month and Governor Andrew Cuomo of New York was facing impeachment having been found to have sexually harassed 11 women--this is as his conduct in Office for his book and his conduct during the COVID-19 pandemic was also being investigated.       This is as the United States added over 943,000 New Jobs during the latest reporting period.     The House Select Committee continued its investigation of the January 6 insurrection as reporting saw some startling testimony from the Acting Attorney General towards the end of Donald Trump's term as President of the United States.
