Redistricting

The redrawing of political boundaries at local, state, and federal levels every decade following the US census.

This is done to reflect changes in the population and to keep the population within each district more or less equal. The process can be controversial because of the fear that the dominant party may intentionally manipulate boundaries for its own political advantage in the next election.
