The Seventy-Sixth Wisconsin Legislature convened from Шаблон:Nowrap to Шаблон:Nowrap in regular session, and convened in a special session in December 1963.[1]
During this legislative session, the legislature and governor again failed at several attempts to pass a redistricting plan. The Wisconsin Supreme Court enacted its own redistricting plan in May 1964, making it the first time in Wisconsin history that the legislative maps were drawn by a court.
Senators representing odd-numbered districts were newly elected for this session and were serving the first two years of a four-year term. Assembly members were elected to a two-year term. Assembly members and odd-numbered senators were elected in the general election of November 6, 1962. Senators representing even-numbered districts were serving the third and fourth year of a four-year term, having been elected in the general election of November 8, 1960.[1]
