This book gives a historical and contemporary overview of the
redistricting process, using North Carolina for the different
political, electoral, and legal issues and debates over the
practice of drawing legislative district boundaries. Redistricting
has been characterized as "the most political activity in America,"
and North Carolina has often been at the heart of recent
controversies over this particular activity. In fact, the Tar Heel
state was once described as "long notorious for (its) outrageous
reapportionment." Through legislative construction to significant
legal challenges, the Tar Heel state has been a noted case study
for the past thirty years. From the contentious issues of
redistricting principles to the matters of gerrymandering, based on
race and politics, North Carolina's past three decades have seen
major U.S. Supreme Court cases deal with redistricting
controversies. By exploring this state's dealings with
gerrymandering and redistricting, readers will have a better sense
of the dynamics facing the nation as it confronts the 2020 Census
and the subsequent redistricting efforts in 2021.
