Census Numbers

Seventy-two per cent of residents in International Falls filed this years 2010 Census forms.

City officials say more participation is needed.

Councillor Cynthia Jaksa says it could mean the difference in representation both at the state capital and Washington.

"We are going to concede power to the southern part of the State and the State House if we don't get out their and participate," says Jaksa.

Members of the U.S. Census Bureau will be going door-to-door in the near future in attempt to count those who did not file the form by last Friday's deadline.
