The lawyers little word game is based on the misuse of the word
"shall" in the original statute. Shall is imperative. Where
feasible, the Secretary must use sampling. The intention of
the legislature is clear. They wanted to ensure that
congressional apportionment would not be subject to sampling
errors or fraudulent manipulation, so they intended that all
heads be counted. They tried to include two ideas in this
section: a mandate for sampling feasible and the exclusion of
apportionment from that mandate. Generally, what is excluded
from a mandate is not subject to the mandate.
