Quota System Removed From Democrat Rules
A reform commission drafting committee unanimously approved deleting the 1972 national convention quota language for women youth and minorities while preserving a commitment to overcoming discrimination. The change also introduces proportional representation for delegates and allows presidential contenders input in delegate selection. Leaders expect full commission approval later this month with DNC action early next year. The old quota rule had sparked controversy and defections while boosting minority presence at Miami Beach. It now requires no proportional representation as a basis for challenges and notes absence of numbers is not proof of nonrepresentation. Missed papers Cal l 782 8040. The Tribune La Crosse Wisconsin.
