"A historic turning point was the 1964 Supreme Court case Reynolds v. Sims
that ruled both houses of all state legislatures had to be based on
electoral districts that were approximately equal in population size,
under the "one man, one vote" principle.[2][3][4] The Warren Court's decisions on two previous landmark cases—Baker v. Carr (1962) and Wesberry v. Sanders (1964)—also played a fundamental role in establishing the nationwide "one man, one vote" electoral system.[5][6] Since the Voting Rights Act of 1965, the Twenty-fourth Amendment, and related laws, voting rights have been legally considered an issue related to election systems. In 1972, the Burger Court
ruled that state legislatures had to redistrict every ten years based
on census results; at that point, many had not redistricted for decades,
often leading to a rural bias.
"
These rulings probably will not survive the Republican Supreme Court.
