State Districts to Be Realigned by Hollomon

Washington January 19. The defeat of the Siegel bill reapportioning the house to 483 members does not prevent Georgia districts from being readjusted. The 1920 census basis would yield roughly 240,000 per district, requiring stronger districts. Fulton and DeKalb may merge into one, other counties moving to smaller districts. Redistricting will be done by the state legislature. The House also kept the current 435-member cap, defeating an increase to 483, after long parliamentary wrangling. Nine states will lose seats. California gains none in this action moving to the Senate.
