Oklahoma House, Senate unveil redistricting plans

Oklahoma House, Senate unveil redistricting plans April 21, 2021 FacebookTwitterEmail OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) The Oklahoma House and Senate unveiled new district maps on Wednesday for all 101 House and 48 Senate districts. Under the plan, which still must be approved by the House and Senate and signed by the governor, no incumbents would be forced to run against each other. Two members who are term limited, Rep. Sean Roberts in House District 36 and Sen. Kim David in Senate District 18, will have their districts moved entirely. The districts were drawn more compactly, and fewer districts will have a mix of urban, suburban and rural areas, said Rep. Ryan Martinez, a Republican from Edmond who chaired the House Redistricting Committee.

After weeks of resisting calls to do so, House Republicans are now waiving the constitutional requirement that the full text of bills be read before a House vote. The time-sucking tactic had significantly slowed passage of bills, much to Democrats’ frustration.
