Charles Duncan, Spectrum News – Under the principle of “one person, one vote,” states are required each decade to redraw congressional districts, along with state legislative and local electoral maps. The redrawing process comes after census numbers are released each decade, but with delays in the census, states are scrambling to get the maps done in a much shorter time frame than usual.In North Carolina, the maps are drawn by the General Assembly. It’s a partisan process, and both Republicans and Democrats have a long history of gerrymandering when they’ve been in charge of the
legislature.https://spectrumlocalnews.com/nc/charlotte/politics/2021/09/30/questions-answered-on-redistricting-in-north-carolina
