The Census

The U.S. Constitution requires that a Census, or population survey, take place every 10 years.

Gerrymandering

Gerrymandering occurs when district lines are redrawn to manipulate election results and disenfranchise voters.

Community Districting

Census results are used to create new legislative and congressional districts to ensure proportional representation in government.
