Archer Plan proposes 11 single member districts in Bexar
Van Jensen Archer, chair of the Bexar County GOP, presents a state redistricting plan to split Bexar County into 11 single member districts aimed at matching the 1970 census ideal. The plan, previewed by the GOP executive committee, shifts populations to balance districts with 75k plus residents per district and notes a $280 population surplus in a southwest segment that could cross county lines.
