A coalition led by the Committee on Legislative Reform began a petition drive to place a constitutional amendment on the November ballot. The plan would end cumulative voting and reduce Illinois House seats from 177 to 118, requiring 375000 signatures by May 3 and 8 percent of the 1972 gubernatorial vote to qualify.
