Democrats in metropolitan Cleveland generally outvote Republicans, who are strongest in the suburbs. The county delegation of six senators and 17 representatives to the 101st General Assembly now in session contains only one Republican. Ard colleagues claim he won because his name is popular among Democrats.

Election of state legislators by congressional districts would give -Republicans a better break. because a GOP-controJiled Legislature, in re-districting the state four years ago, give Cuyahoga four congressional districts and made sure that two of them wrere predominantly Republican George H.

That would leave one state representative and two state senators to be elected countywide on the present numerical basis.

Under that arrangement, politicians speculate that Democrats would win the contywide contests but would split with Republicans in the districts.

And Sen. Joseph W. Bartunek (D-Cuyahoga), Senate minority leader, says he will go to bat against the proposal if it reaches the upper house. Wheeler, a retired merchant who lives near Mt. Gilead, says sentiment is growing for his resolution in the two-week-old Legislature.

A veteran of two previous terms, he appears confident of success in both the predominently rural House and the urban-minded Senate. Democrats voew they take it lying down. Sen. Joseph ll. Avellone (D-Cuyahoga) has a proposal for legislative districts in all counties electing more than one state senator and representative And his resolution calls for districts in Cuyahoga, radiat ing into the county from the heart of Cleveland.

He claims that would be the only way to split the county Politieans assert such a division would tend to preserve the voting advantage in the county. Gorman conceded his proposal a diversionary effort against resolution. Politi cans assert the Gorman resolution get but they fear it might stir dissent between rural and urban factions. Gorman wants representatives limited to counties with at least 40,000 population.
