Redistricting Board Approves Plan Faces Court Test
The Legislative Redistricting Board approved a House apportionment plan with 150 single member districts not provided, prompting Dallas Senator Oscar Mauzy to consider a lawsuit as early as Wednesday. Matscher denounced the plan, casting the lone dissent as the vote carried 4-1 after delays. Changes affect South Plains districts with boundary tweaks and shifts to Bexar Harris and Tarrant counties. Incumbents seek reelection as rural areas gain seats and counties adjust representation, with Harris County adding a subseat and other counties adjusting from 19 to 16, 11, or 9 members.
