High Court Rules on Districting in Major Apportionment
The Supreme Court upheld one man one vote rules across cases. It declined to halt a three judge panel's order for New York's special legislative election under a lame duck Republican redistricting plan. It gave Illinois Supreme Court authority to supervise reapportionment in Illinois and affirmed a California Senate redraw by July 1. It did not intervene in Idaho, leaving three judge court action pending on a state redistricting plan. The court urged timely state action to produce valid redistricting for 1966 elections.
