Census coming April 1, 2010. It is vital that everyone be counted for the census so Volusia County and its cities will be fairly represented in Congress and the state legislature, and will receive their fair share of federal and state funds. LWVVC Board
             member Gwen Azama-Edwards is serving on the Volusia County Complete Count
             Committee. For information on the upcoming census, see
http://www.VolusiaCounts.org
or              http://www.VolusiaCuenta.org.
The Committee's latest report is here, and a general introduction to the census can be found
