Texas Districting Court Rule Awaited
Texas officials await a Supreme Court ruling on the congressional redistricting suit. A special session could be called to redraw districts if the court rules against at large elections, with estimates of costs and potential chaos if lawmakers cannot act promptly. Changes likely add seats in Dallas and Harris counties while possibly eliminating others in northeast Texas. The outcome hinges on the court's decision and the timing of any new district map before 1964 elections.
