Rural Alaska
Guaranteed
Representation
FAIRBANKS UR—Rural Alaska
was guaranteed a representative
voice in government by action of
the Constitutional Convention in
a session over the weekend.
The issue was over the fixing
into the constitution of a specific
number of senators for each of
the 16 Senate subdistricts. Dele
gates voted 45 to 6 in favor of
keeping this language in the con
stitution: , «
“The Senate districts may be
modified to reflect changes in (the
24) election districts. A district,
although modified, shall retain its
total number of senators and its
approximate perimeter.”
Apparently most of the dele
gates thought they had already
made this guarantee when ap
proving, in second reading, the
article on legislative apportion
ment. But when the Style and
Drafting Committee reported the
article out, the convention found
the wording applied only to the
four overall geographic Senate di
visions, not the 16 sub-units.
As it stood then, the representa
tion in the four larger divisions—
southeastern, south central, cen
tral and northwestern—would be
fixed, but the number of senators
assigned to the various subdis
tricts could be changed.
After debate the apportionment
article was put through final pas
sage by a vote of 45-5.
