Senate Bill 10 Reapportion State Passed in Senate
Santa Fe March 7 AP The Wilson Jones legislative reapportionment bill SB46 passed the Senate 14 to 10 with four Republicans joined by six Democrats in opposition. Senator Sedillo called it a clever gerrymander and questioned its constitutionality citing population mismatches in Santa Fe and Chaves counties. Introducer Senator Jones said Democrats were aided by the constitutional convention’s original apportionment. The bill keeps 24 senators and 49 representatives but redraws districts for 1986 Senate and 1934 House changes with specific district pairings and residency rules.
