When a census was/is taken, how did they account for the people on ships?

1 Answer

Answer :

As far as our military, they probably maintain residence in a state or DC even if they are on a ship with no actual domocile in that state. They vote from that state and are counted in that state. The reason I assume this is because military can move state to state and maintain voting rights, still have their driver’s license, and license plates in a different state, everything can be kept in whatever state they decide if they have lived there. I assume it is the same if they are on a ship somwhere. Blackberry will know for sure, I’ll send this to him.
