Kuni applied to the Census Bureau under an alias in late April and passed an initial background check. He was fingerprinted during four days of training, which flagged him as a sex offender May 1.
But a loophole in the application process meant Kuni was already canvassing houses by the time his fingerprint results came back, Armstrong said. Once the government knew who Kuni was, officials didn't find him until May 5, after Schmalbach's call to police.
Sounds like they need to not be so quick about hiring. They also need to take a look at this background check system they are using. I guess it doesn't include criminal history.

You reckon that this to be one of the jobs created by "you know who"? It's all about re-election.

Another reason to answer the door, with your weapon accessible and not letting them in your house!

Do not let them inside your home. Often fraudsters or others will attempt to gain entry to a home to scope out its contents or plan a burglary.

Census workers are not supposed to ask, or to go inside your home for any reason. Any that do ask or attempt are likely bad guys. As for me and my family, if you come to our door and we don't know you, we have any conversation through the double dead bolted door. We never unlock for strangers, whoever they claim to be.
Even with the gun on my hip.

Re-election I hope NOT.
