Abstract
Examines the impact of various structural arrangements on Hispanic city council representation in cities with 1980 populations over 25,000. The size of the Hispanic populations is the chief determinant of presence on city councils. Demonstrates that use of different population size thresholds to select units for analysis and differences in the methodological treatment of outliers produce different results. (Abstract amended)
