Sources close to the sub
committee said yesterday in
formation also may be devel-
oped at the hearing on the
movement in some Southern
States to have uninstructed
electors on the presidential bal
lot next year,
If the regular Democratic
organization in any Southern
State should decide to support
uninstructed electors, 1t would
make it more difficult for
President Kennedy to carry
such a State,
In 1860, Alabama, with II
electoral votes, elected 6 UNI
instructed electors and 5 for
the Kennedy johnson ticket.
Mississippi elected all of its
eight as uninstructed electors.
These IA Southern Democratic
votes went to Senator Harry F.
Byrd of Virginia in the Elec-
toral College, as did the vote
Of one Republican in Oklahoma,
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1963-06-02

even though Mr.. Kennedy car
ried Alabama and Mississippi
and Richard M. Nixon won in
Oklahoma.
Georgia cast its IL votes for
President Kennedy in 1860, but
has a law under which there
could be uninstructed electors.
Louisiana Acts
A few days ago the Louisiana
House passed a bill to permit
uninstructed electors, but 1t
still must go through the State
Senate. The Florida Senate has
passed a similar bill. In 1860
President Kennedy carried
Louisiana, but Richard Nixon
took Florida.
The Senate subcommittee has
before it a number Of proposed
changes in the system under
which the entire electoral vote
of a State goes to the ticket
which gets a majority Of the
popular vote. There have been
only occasional departures from
this system, as in Alabama last
year.
The most widely discussed
change would apportion the
electoral vote according to the
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1963-06-02

percentage of popular vote for
each party. An alternative pro-
posal would have the electors
chosen in the same way that
Congress is elected, namely. by
districts, with two chosen at
large, as the Senator'S are
elected.
A third proposal has been to
do away with the Electoral Col
lege and elect the President by
Nationwide popular vote.
All have been debated off and
on for many years, and the out
look for any action by Congress
is no brighter this year than in
the past.
