Bureau update on their processing work:

"Importantly, we’ve not uncovered anything so far that would suggest that the 2020 Census will not be fit for its constitutional and statutory purposes."

I wouldn't trust anything coming out of the Census Bureau:

Census takers say they were told to enter false information

Just how truly reliable are their numbers?  And why should anyone trust them now?  

Honestly, given how hopelessly compromised this year's census has proven to be, we need a redo next year. 

You would need Congressional approval for a redo, which McConnell would never allow a vote on in the Senate.

The only problem for Dems between 2020-30 are the population growth dynamics in the states between 2010-20.

States won by Biden will likely lose 4-8 EV with the new numbers, Trump states will likely net the same amount.

But that has nothing to do with the Census process and quality itself.
for the 2024 election, Texas and Florida will gain some EVs which do lean republican for now. NC,Ga and AZ will gain seats as well but those are tossups. as for dems NV,OR,WA,CO will gain seats as they are growing as well.As a whole, it might be a slight loss or a wash for Biden

Biden states IL, CA, MN, RI, and PA will likely lose seats.

Trump states AL and WV likely lose seats.

Trump state MT likely gains a seat. 

Likely a gain of 4/5 votes for Trump states.
