If the 2030 Census is not conducted, this question will resolve according to the most recent population estimate, prior to January 1, 2031, provided by the Census Bureau on or before the closing date. For example, the July 1, 2022 population estimate was 8,335,897; if the Census Bureau does not provide any new population estimates before 12/31/32, this question will resolve No.
