[EL] Counting Everyone for ‘One Person, One Vote'

[David Ely]

No but apportionment is an aspect of redistricting, the part that determines the size of the districts. – dah

 

What you mean to say is that redistricting is not the apportionment of representatives to the states. The point of this discussion is that the constitution and the writings of the authors articulate a democratic theory underlying the apportionment of representation to the states. If the constitution is to be read to require any specific rule of apportionment to districting, it should be a rule consistent with the democratic theory embodied in the constitution.
