North Carolina in the 1900s

North Carolina State House of Representatives

1967

This General Assembly met from February 8th to July 6th in 1967.

During the 1966 NC General Assembly, the Legislature created forty-nine (49) new districts for the House of Representatives, instead of each County being its own district. See Map.

These new districts would be modified henceforth based on Census data every ten years, with some districts losing and other districts gaining in the number of delegates authorized for the NC House of Representatives. The number of Representatives remained at one hundred-twenty (120).
