Abstract: Abstract The technical processes of redrawing districts or reallocating seats among districts has always been relatively simple, but it has become even easier in most nations because of technological advances and improved data. The greatest difficulty, however, is political. Even the simplest change necessarily affects two or more districts, meaning two or more incumbents and potential election outcomes.
