Arizona voters could soon decide if more is better — at least when it comes to state lawmakers.
The House of Representatives is set to consider this coming week SCR 1010 which would have one legislative district for every 220,000 residents.
Based on estimates from the state Office of Economic Opportunity, that would mean at least 33 senators and 66 representatives — there are two for each district — after the 2020 census. The Arizona Constitution now has a hard and fast cap of 30 and 60, respectively.
It is that cap that concerns Sen. Warren Petersen, R-Gilbert.
