If a change in the number of congressional districts creates a conflict between a requirement that a board, commission, authority, or other statutory entity shall have a specified number of members and a requirement that one or more members shall be appointed from each congressional district, the appointing authority shall make appointments as follows:
1. If the conflict has been created by a decrease in the number of districts, the appointing authority shall make additional appointments as necessary to maintain a full board and may make said additional appointments without regard to the appointee's district of residence; and2. If the conflict has been created by an increase in the number of districts, the appointing authority shall make only such appointments as are necessary to maintain a full board, doing so in such fashion that the members are distributed among the districts to the greatest possible extent.Okla.
