(Richmond, VA) -- Virginia Governor Tim Kaine has issued an Executive Order creating the Virginia Complete Count Committee to ensure an accurate and comprehensive survey in the 2010 Census. The CCC will also facilitate the sharing of ideas and resources between various communities in the Commonwealth. Kaine says the team reflects the diversity of communities across the Commonwealth and it will be a key component in ensuring the full participation of all Virginians in the 2010 Census. The Census will target every household in the nation with a ten point questionnaire. The data will help determine how some 400-billion is distributed from the federal government to state, local and tribal governments annually.
