Fr iday caucuses remain set as State Democrat Chairman Clif Larson said the reapportionment plan was voided. He noted the transcript of testimony and the commissioner's summary shows political considerations cannot override constitutional requirements. The court will decide if senators elected in 1972 must be drawn from even or odd districts to satisfy rotation rules. A key issue is four year terms for constitutional Senate after 1972.
