A HISTORY OF THE SPECIAL SESSION OF THE
GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF 1965
The General Assembly was called into special session on October
II, 1965, for the purpose of reapportioning the General Assembly.
The Legislature was under court order to reapportion the Senate.
The special session continued for nine actual working days, and it
adjourned on October 21, 1965. About a dozen bills were introduced
on the subject of reapportionment, but only two were enacted. These
were Senate Bill 5 and Senate Bill 8.
Senate Bill 5, which became Chapter 2 of the Acts of the Special
Session of 1965, provided for a 43-member Senate. In a number of
instances, some counties are combined in order to make senatorial
districts.
Senate Bill 8, which became Chapter 3 of the Acts of the Special
Session of 1965, provided for a 53-member Senate with each county
having at least one Senator.
Chapter 3 of the Acts of the Special Session also contained a
provision that if it is ruled valid by the Courts, Chapter 2 will not
take effect. On the other hand, if Chapter 3 is ruled invalid, Chapter 2
is then to become effective.
