“One Person, One Vote”: Evenwel v. Abbott Oral Argument Preview

Civil Rights Practice Group Teleforum

Our Teleforum will preview the oral argument in the Supreme Court in Evenwel v. Abbott. What is meant, precisely, by the term “one person, one vote”? What are its implications for apportioning legislative districts? Does the Equal Protection Clause allow States to use total population, or does it require States to use voter population, when apportioning its legislative districts? What are the best arguments to be made by each side? These and other questions will be addressed as we preview one of the most talked-about cases of the Term.

Featuring:

  • Bradley A. Benbrook, Founding Partner, Benbrook Law Group
  • C. Dean McGrath Jr., Founder, McGrath & Associates
