A Washington lawyer supporting Senator McCarthy challenges the one man one vote basis of state delegate allocation for the Democratic National Convention. He seeks to strike bonuses for Johnson states and appointive national committeemen, aiming to reduce votes in the 1964 map.

The suit raises questions about court power over party nomination rules and potential shifts if Dirksen era amendments pass.
