MR. SCANLAN: Would you say the dangers of
|
|
3
|
parochialism submerging a program by the only official
|
|
4
|
elected by an entire state are greater in the case of
|
|
5
|
unicameral legislation on a nonpartisan basis, such as
|
|
6
|
Nebraska, than they would be in a unicameral legislature
|
|
7
|
that was elected on a partisan basis, or am I back to the
|
|
8
|
question you went off the record on?
|
|
9
|
MR. KENTNER: Yes.
|
|
10
|
MR. SCANLAN: Your answer would be the same,
|
|
11
|
then, if we were on the record?
|
|
12
|
MR. KENTNER: Yes.
|
|
13
|
MR. MINDEL: Before we leave that; were efforts
|
|
14
|
trade to go back to bicameralism in Nebraska and they all
|
|
15
|
failed? Can you tell us what happened to those efforts?
|
|
16
|
MR. KENTNER: There have been no serious efforts
|
|
17
|
to my knowledge, to return. These were not serious, and
|
|
18
|
I think in one of these reports Governor Morrison is
|
|
19
|
quoted as saying unicameralism would win on the ballot by
|
|
20
|
seventy-five per cent, and I think this is a fairly con-
|
|
21
|
servative estimate.
