Democratic reform commission approves most proposals
The McGovern commission approved 10 of 19 reform criteria to boost rank and file participation in selecting delegates for the 1972 Democratic nominating convention. It deferred two major issues, proportional minority representation and delegate apportionment, for at least a month. The package includes allowing 18-year-olds in party activities, removing restrictive voter laws, reducing fees, standardizing rules and dates, banning the unit rule, and letting the delegation fill vacancies. The panel will seek nationwide reaction before final action.
