Another Districting Proposal Collapses in Indiana
INDIANAPOLIS AP Another plan for reapportionment of the Indiana General Assembly collapsed in caucus Tuesday afternoon, but House Republicans began support for a different scheme. Majority Leader Charles W. Edwards said the four-man plan failed to meet equity standards and that Republicans backed Rep. John W. Donaldson’s plan to allocate each county half a House seat and divide the remaining 54 by population. The Senate plan, backed by conferees from both parties, was seen as mostly assured, while Rock noted further action would follow on page 2.
