39 Amendment Carries Here But Loses In State
McCulloch County voted in favor of expanding the Texas Senate from 31 to 39 members by 269 to 177, but the proposal failed statewide. Camp San Saba opposed it 10-2, Brady favored 153 to 109, and rural defeat was noted with a two-to-one margin. Turnout in McCulloch was light, under 500. The result clears the way for a 41 Senator redistricting plan for 1966 elections.
