Are there any questions?
Delegate Sollins.
DELEGATE SOLLINS: Delegate Gilchrist, if I
understand your proposal correctly, and I would like
to, will the legislature be permitted in some areas
to have a ratio of three-to-one, for example in the
Western part of Maryland; four-to-one in the Eastern part,
and so on?
DELEGATE GILCHRIST: No. The legislature
must establish a ratio of delegate districts to the
senate districts. It may divide that senate district into
a number of delegate districts, or it may permit the
delegates from that district to run at large within the
district.
DELEGATE SOLLINS: You are not answering my
question, or I don't understand your answer.
Will the legislature have to then establish one
ratio that will be applicable to the entire State?
DELEGATE GILCHRIST: Yes.
DELEGATE SOLLINS: Where is that in your proposed
language? |
