Court Declares State Apportionment Must Be Population Based
The Supreme Court ruled that state legislative districts must be drawn to roughly equal populations, rejecting a federal analogy to Congress. Chief Justice Earl Warren rejected reliance on the federal system, deeming it inapposite for state apportionment and upholding equal protection in voting weight across districts. The Alabama cases involved a judicially decreed reapportionment plan favoring Jefferson County Mobile and Montgomery, challenging equity and the necessity of population-based House and Senate apportionment.

Scranton said he is buoyed by GOP delegates nationwide and could win over undecided delegates through speeches and one on one outreach. A group of eight Republican senators issued a principles declaration backing a free open convention to nominate Scranton, while Nelson Rockefeller supporters endorsed the effort. The statement urged preserving party traditions and backing United Nations reform, civil rights legislation, and federal social programs, while opposing open shop laws.
