What is Redistricting and why do it?
Redistricting is the redrawing or adjusting of district lines to ensure that legislative representation is fair and balanced. It is done every ten years, after the census data is compiled, to account for population shifts and growth over the last decade. The purpose is to bring districts back into compliance with the one-person one-vote mandate of the federal and state constitutions. In the case of the county, the supervisorial district lines are redrawn, but the number of districts (5) remains the same.
