Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Census

Redistricting is the process of drawing electoral district boundaries in the United States.

Redistricting has to follow certain criteria to be accepted:

* compactness
* contiguity
* equal population
* preservation of existing political communities

Gerrymandering is the practice of drawing district lines to achieve political gain for legislators.
