Doesn't the decision to simply not count persons (federal prisoners whose
home address is in NY, state prisoners whose home addresses cannot be
identified) present a 14th amendment problem?

The NY prisoners law would geocode state prisoners to a legal home of record
if one exists, consistent wth PL 94-171 formatting. Those without
identifiable addresses would not be counted for state legislative
redistricting. Federal prisoners (and this is a low number) are not counted
for state legislative redistricting.

Legislative staffers are currently going through the preparatory
implementation stages.
