Craddick'', 471 S.W.2d 375, [https://scholar.google.com/scholar_case?case=12960073997449546181#p377 377] (Tex. 1971) ("Section 26 requires that apportionment be by county and when two or more counties are required to make up a district of proper population, the district lines shall follow county boundaries and the counties shall be contiguous. A county not entitled to its own representative must be joined to contiguous counties so as to achieve a district with the population total entitled to one representative. The only impairment of this mandate is that a county may be divided if to do so is necessary in order to comply with the equal population requirement of the Fourteenth Amendment.") | * ''Smith v.
