Missouri redistricting back to Senate after House vote
The Missouri House rejected a redistricting bill amid partisan clash. The 10457 to 431 vote returns the measure to the Senate, where Senate leaders may act. House supporters say the plan benefits majorities in St Louis districts while preserving a constitutional amendment on bond issues. If the Senate rejects, the issue could be delayed to the 1968 election.
