Shaft Plan in Iowa Senate Redistricting Debate Ahead of Dec. 3 Vote
Interest in the shaft plan for reapportionment grows as supporters from cities and counties push for a mixed area and population based House and Senate. Governor Hughes promotes a city rural divide but faces broad, divided support and warnings from critics. The plan outlines 95 county seats for the House and 58 senatorial districts with equal population and limited deviation, redrawn every ten years. The piece emphasizes the need for a strong voting turnout to implement the plan or spark a new proposal. The quote from Corra Harris underscores the courage required in political action.
