Prop 15 urged to rebalance California senate seats
Cook argues that current reapportionment shortchanges Southern California by 80 percent of senate seats. He says Prop 15 would yield 17 seats for six densely populated counties, three north and three south, matching population and tax contributions. He contrasts with Nevada Oregon border counties receiving more subsidies per tax dollar. Reapportionment is overdue.
