U.S. Supreme Court action on Dec. 2, 1996
 (ORDER LIST: 519 U.S.)
 
                      APPEAL -- SUMMARY DISPOSITION
  96-471    MILLER, CLARENCE, ET AL. V. OHIO, ET AL.
                     The judgment is affirmed.
------
The Ohio gerrymander was especially written to protect incumbents.  The case
(one of many that are similar) gives an indication of the major struggle that
it will take to wipe out the gerrymander and to get proportional
representation in the U.S.
