President Obama is tapping Robert Groves, a University of Michigan professor who has pushed the use of statistical sampling, to be the next Census Bureau director, the Associated Press reported. A Commerce Department official said the White House will make the announcement today.
Groves is an expert in survey methodology and statistics who served as an associate director of the Census Bureau from 1990-92. He and others recommended that the 1990 census be statistically adjusted to make up for an undercount, only to be overruled by then-Commerce Secretary Robert Mosbacher, a Republican.

It is a normal thing that a statistical person can be more accurate while calculating things and its probability than others. And that would be a benefit to Groves.
