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.
