Gallup-McKinley board OKs single member district plan
Gallup-McKinley County Board of Education approved a move from at large to five single member districts for county elections including the school board. Districts cover Tohatchi Navajo area Church Rock Wingate Fort Wingate Gamerco Bread Springs Cousins Ramah West Gallup Manculito East Gallup Crownpoint Thoreau Whitehorse Prewitt Smith Lake Coolidge Continental Divide. Each district will represent about 9,471 to 10,353 residents in a district of roughly 50,000. The plan awaits U S District Judge Santiago Campos in Santa Fe approval and follows lawsuits alleging unequal representation. The plan mirrors the one filed by Elsie Largo in Crownpoint and could apply to county commissioners. Governor Anaya later signed a law mandating single member districts. The local suit delayed the February election.
