Department of Justice Raleigh, North Carolina RE: Objection to Stipulations 33 and 34 Dear Tiare: In response to your objection to Stipulations 33 and 34, 1 am forwarding herewith our notes on these points. The raw data was obtained by Marty McGee from Dan Frey last week. See also Deposition Exhibit 68. The information that is circled on the attached note was given to Marty by Mr. Frey and is in Mr. Frey's own handwriting, I should also note that these figures are also the basis for the information contained in Stipulation 35, to which you have not objected. The formula that can be used to reach the conclusions contained in these stipulations is a follows: (1) Stip. 33: African-Americans in 1992 District 12 (312,791) minus African- Americans moved from District 12 (80,467) when the 1997 plan was adopted divided by the number of African-Americans in 1997 version of District 12 (257.644) equals percentage of African-Americans that are in the 1997 12" that were also in the 1992 12% (90.17%). (2) Stip 34: Whites in 1992 District 12 (230,888) minus whites moved from District 12 (91,844) when the 1997 plan was adopted divided by the number of whites in 1997 version of District 12 (284,799) equals percentage of whites that are in 1997 12® that were also in the 1992 12" (48.82%). If you believe that the data or calculations used to create Stipulations 33 and 34 are incorrect, please let us know. Otherwise, we would appreciate your reconsidering your objection to these stipulations or, at a minimum, to the raw statistics we obtained from the State to formulate these points. EVERETT GASKINS/DURHAM TEL :948-682-5469 Nov..26°99 12:12 Not. O08 P03 If you will not reconsider these stipulations, then we will need to subpoena Dan Frey and add him to our witness list, I will be out of the office this afternoon, so please discuss this matter with Doug or Marty when it is convenient for you. .
