Despite the committee’s approval, it appeared the bill was headed for failure this session. Eleven Senate Democrats and one Republican have said they are opposed to taking up redis tricting. Under Senate rules, two- thirds of the chamber, or 21 sena tors, must support a bill for it to be debated. Opposition from 11 senators is enough to kill the bill in the 31-member chamber, and Republican Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst said he would leave that rule in place this session. However, Republican Gov. Rick Perry is widely expected to call a second special legislative session on redistricting if a bill does not get approved by Tuesday, when this session ends. If Perry does that, Dewhurst said he will do away with the two-thirds rule so that only a majority of senators would have to support the bill for it to get a debate on the floor. Democrats say they are weighing their options, including boycotting the Senate, under that scenario. Republicans tried to push redistricting during the regular legislative session but House Democrats fled the state in May. That move broke a quorum in the chamber and killed the redistrict ing bill. The map the committee approved keeps the Central Texas counties of Bell, Coryell and McLennan in one district; splits Webb County along the Texas- Mexico border into two districts; and divides Travis County into three districts. One district starts in Travis County and winds its way south to Hidalgo County along the bor der. Another district, currently represented by Rep. Lloyd Doggett, D-Austin, starts in Travis County and heads east into Harris County. Another Central Texas district starts in Bastrop County, snakes its way east to Aransas County and then makes it way south to Cameron County, also along the border. The map also groups Victoria County into a district that includes Brazoria and Galveston Counties as well as part of Harris County. Under the map. Rep. Martin Frost, D-Arlington, could likely lose his seat if he seeks re-elec tion because he would be pitted against Republican Rep. Joe Barton of Ennis and the proposed district is majority Republican. “It is an illegal map that vio lates the Voting Rights Act and disenfranchises independent rural voters, especially in East and Central Texas, and it’s the result BAYONNE of a broken cc Tyler Hamiltoi Tour de France breakaway effc Lance Arm overall lead wii ished 24th in seconds behind Hamilton ap line at the end trek from Pau t day in the mou “It was in Hamilton said, thing.
