Referendum Question on Wisconsin Redistricting Confuses Voters
A complex ballot issue asks whether Wisconsin constitution amendments should create senate or assembly districts by area in addition to population. The Rosenberry draft would not greatly alter Green County representation if voters choose No, keeping one assembly seat while shifting the 17th Senate District to include Grant County and merging Lafayette and Town counties into one assembly district. The debate centers on area versus population representation and rural versus urban interests, with Turn to No. 1, Page Two.
