Carr in 1962, had far more than jurisprudential consequences. They sparked a massive wave of extraordinary redistricting in the mid-1960s. Both state legislative and congressional districts were redrawn more comprehensively - by far - than at any previous time in America's history. Moreover, they changed what would happen at law should a state government fail to enact a new districting plan when one was legally required. This book provides a detailed analysis of how judicial partisanship affected redistricting outcomes in the 1960s, arguing that the reapportionment revolution led indirectly to three fundamental changes in the nature of congressional elections: the abrupt eradication of a 6% pro-Republican bias in the translation of congressional votes into seats outside the south; the abrupt increase in the apparent advantage of incumbents; and the abrupt alteration of the two parties' success in congressional recruitment and elections. 410 0$aPolitical economy of institutions and decisions. 606 $aApportionment (Election law)$zUnited States 606 $aElection districts$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$xPolitics and government$y1945-1989 607 $aUnited States$xPolitics and government$y1989- 615 0$aApportionment (Election law) 615 0$aElection districts 676 $a328.73/07345 700 $aCox$b Gary W.$0497721 702 $aKatz$b Jonathan N$g(Jonathan Neil),$f1968- 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910816800903321 996 $aElbridge Gerry's salamander$94027007 997 $aUNINA
