Texas Court Allows 1964 Congressional Elections
A three judge federal panel ruled Texas may proceed with 1964 elections under current procedures. It postponed the effective date of a prior order to January 1, 1965 but kept pressure for a valid redistricting statute by August 1, 1963. The court warned it would take further action if Texas fails to act, and discussed at-large elections versus immediate redistricting.
