Party Lines: Competition, Partisanship, and Congressional Redistricting
Search in google:
In Party Lines, Thomas E. Mann, Bruce E. Cain, and their colleagues explain the legal and political history of redistricting since the one person, one vote revolution in the 1960s and place it in the larger context of American politics. They document its impact on competition, polarization, and partisan politics. The final chapter analyzes options for reform, including, most important, the use of independent redistricting commissions as an alternative to the typical state legislative process. Redistricting reform is no panacea but it is a start toward ensuring that American voters still have the largest say in who will represent them.
