Reapportionment. Congressional and general assembly districts to be consistent with federal standards.

CONSTITUTION ARTICLE  III,  Section 5

Adopted: November 26, 1980 by a popular vote of  414,907 in favor and 203,837 against.

“ Common Cause believes the legislature should go a step further and substantially reform the entire reapportionment process.  The Common Cause model proposal has three main elements-strict anti-gerrymandering standards; non-partisan reapportionment commission and prompt judicial review.”

--Betty Gallo, Executive Director of Common Cause, testifying at a Government Administration & Elections Committee public hearing on February 19, 1980.
