According to the reapportionment plan passed Tuesday by the Democratic majority in the state legislature, the 26th district's boundaries have been changed. The newly created district still includes Arcadia.
The reapportion plan, upheld last week, moves H. L. Richardson away from his Arcadia base to a new district. Newton R. Russell's district picks up Arcadia. Richardson is threatening to oppose Russell in the next election rather than run in his own new district.
