Book excerpt: Residency for reapportionment of state senatorial and representative districts is established by statute. Persons who are citizens of a country other than the United States are deemed to be residents of the country in which which they hold citizenship. Those persons are not to be enumerated in the Kansas census unless they obtain United States citizenship as well as establish legal residence in this state prior to the time of enumeration. The resulting distinction between citizens and non-citizens does not impermissibly dilute the power of an individual's vote, and does not therefor deny equal protection.
