The term used for the practice of redrawing electoral district boundaries is gerrymandering. This process involves manipulating boundaries to favor a particular political party, influencing the outcome of elections. Gerrymandering can lead to disproportionate representation and may undermine the electoral system’s fairness. It often raises ethical and legal questions, as it can dilute the voting power of certain demographic groups. The practice is viewed critically by many who advocate for a more equitable political landscape, highlighting the importance of independent redistricting commissions to ensure that districts are drawn fairly and transparently.
