Explanation:
1.Redistricting is the process by which new congressional and state legislative district boundaries are drawn. All United States Representatives and state legislators are elected from political divisions called districts. District lines are redrawn every 10 years following completion of the United States census. The federal government stipulates that districts must have nearly equal populations and must not discriminate on the basis of race or ethnicity.[1]
2.Congressional redistricting is the province of the state legislatures in 35 states. In seven states, independent commissions are responsible for congressional redistricting. In one state, the task falls to a politician commission. The remaining seven states contain one congressional district each, rendering congressional redistricting unnecessary.
The legislatures themselves are responsible for state legislative redistricting in 36 states. In 10 states, the task falls to independent commissions. In four states, politician commissions draw state legislative district maps.
The states themselves determine their own redistricting methods. These methods vary from state to state and, sometimes, within a state (for example, different methods may apply to congressional redistricting than to state legislative redistricting). This article details redistricting methods by state for both congressional and state legislative redistricting.[1]
