In June the United States Supreme Court will make its ruling on Gerrymandering that both political parties Democrat and Republican party's have been found to be nefariously re-mapping voting districts to gain the majority. And sadly it has gone to another extreme in North Carolina at A & T University. The campus has literally been split in two. One of the organizations contesting this redistricting is Common Cause. A voting rights organization is one of the plaintiffs in the suit.
With the increase and ability of technology redistricting has become much easier and help manipulate voters political views. The use of social media is the front runner of tools that enable this activity. Last year ( 2018 ) North Carolina and Maryland courts ruled in favor of the challengers siting that the activity was in violation of the First Amendment. It is possible this case could change future U.S. elections.
