Census 2000: The Redistricting Summary Data (Public Law )

Redistricting Data Program Public Law enacted in 1975 Outgrowth of 1960’s court decisions on “One-Person/One-Vote” and 1965 Voting Rights Act State legislatures can receive data according to local definitions to ease planning new district boundaries First look at racial/ethnic profile of local community

Data Items Included –Total Population –Hispanic/Latino Origin –Race –Voting Age Population

Public Law 1 (PL1) Data Table: Race

Public Law 2 (PL2) Data Table: Hispanic or Latino, and Not Hispanic or Latino by Race

Public Law 3 (PL3) Data Table: Race for the Population 18 Years and Over

Public Law 4 (PL4) Data Table: Hispanic or Latino, and Not Hispanic or Latino by Race for the Population 18 Years and Over

Office of Management and Budget Race Categories American Indian or Alaska Native Asian Black or African American Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander White Some other Race Two or More Races

Race Items of Interest Respondents could choose more than one category Total possibility of 63 racial categories Hispanic/Latino origin cross-tabulation equals 126 possible racial/ethnic categories In a National Content Survey on Race in 1996, 1.2% reported multiracial In 1998 Dress Rehearsal, 5.4% of Sacramento, Ca. respondents were of multiple races

Maximum Combination of Six Racial Categories 6 racial categories +57 combinations of two or more races 63 Possible combinations

“Two or More Races” Category where all multiple-race responses are grouped together This category, together with the 6 single-race alone categories, will add up to 100% of the population The result is that direct comparisons back to 1990 racial categories CANNOT be made
