Answer 1

Answer-

To make sure that every person is granted the right of representation in government.

Residents may be placed within areas drawn on a map that shows who they vote for in elections.

To allow for a mathematically ideal proportionment of populations so that elected officials know where voters are located and who is voting for them.

Explanation- Districting is the administrative process of subdividing a large state or a country. This is done to provide representation to the people in the legislative body. This legislative body determines the districts or boundaries and determines whether each district would be represented by a single or multiple members. This district’s boundaries ensure that every person is provided the right of representation in the legislative body/ government. This districting also allows for a mathematically ideal proportionment of populations which helps the elected candidates know their voters are located and this determines the constituency.

Other options- Option one is a form of discrimination and is incorrect.
