Ashamed to say I'd read the term but never looked it up...

Gerrymandering is the practice of setting boundaries of electoral districts to favor specific political interests within legislative bodies, often resulting in districts with convoluted, winding boundaries rather than compact areas.


Believe I have read articles of judges throwing out newly developed districts that they for one reason or another, considered illegal?
