Engstrom offers an important, historically grounded perspective on the stakes of congressional redistricting by evaluating the impact of gerrymandering on elections and on party control of the U.S. national government from 1789 through the reapportionment revolution of the 1960s. In this era before the courts supervised redistricting, state parties enjoyed wide discretion with regard to the timing and structure of their districting choices. Although Congress occasionally added language to federal- apportionment acts requiring equally populous districts, there is little evidence this legislation was enforced. Essentially, states could redistrict largely whenever and however they wanted, and so, not surpris- ingly, political considerations dominated the process. Engstrom employs the abundant cross- sectional and temporal varia- tion in redistricting plans and their electoral results from all the states— throughout U.S. history— in order to investigate the causes and con- sequences of partisan redistricting.

What do we really remember from civics or government class? The National Council for the Social Studies (2013) states that “in a constitutional democracy productive civic engagement requires knowledge of the history, principles, and foundations of our American democracy, and the ability to participate in civic and democratic processes”. However, it is one thing to study the institutions described in the U.S. Constitution and quite another to try and assess whether consent of the governed, separation of powers, and legitimate authority are truly guiding our institutions, including courts, legislatures, and executive branch agencies.

THE RIGHT TO VOTE AND JUDICIAL ENFORCEMENT OF SECTION TWO OF THE FOURTEENTH AMENDMENT* Arthur Earl Bonfieldf I. THE PROBLEM One of the fundamental challenges of our day is the preservation of our civil and political liberties from the encroachments of private and public bodies. To this end we set up civil rights commissions, enact civil rights legislation, and otherwise attempt to enforce those rights politically as well as in the courts. Arguably the most fundamental of all these rights we enjoy is the right to vote. The possession of this privilege has made us a fortunate people in that we live under a government responsible to, and chosen by, those whose society it orders. The protection of the franchise as it is conceived in our framework of government should therefore be of great concern to us all, causing us to resist with utmost vigor any diminu- tion of this right beyond that constitutionally sanctioned.

Green, 335 U.S. 281 (1948) (mem.); Colegrove v. Green, 328 U.S. 549 (1946). The questions facing the Court in each of these cases were whether federal courts had jurisdiction of cases concerning legislative apportionment and whether the issues were justiciable. They were answered in the negative. Colegrove, supra, was the leading case in this line (subsequent cases routinely cited it in per curiam opinions), although a majority of the Justices taking part in that case were of the opinion that the issues were justiciable. The plurality opinion of Justice Frankfurter-com- monly cited for the proposition that the issues were not justiciable-represented the views of only three Justices.

  • Apportionment and Redistricting Following the 2020 Census
    INSIGHTi Apportionment and Redistricting Following the 2020 Census Updated September 29, 2021 The census, apportionment, and congressional redistricting are interrelated processes that occur every decade. The U.S. Constitution provides that a decennial census determines the distribution of U.S. House seats across states. Dividing House seats across states is known as apportionment (or reapportionment). Each state must receive one House seat and additional seats are distributed proportionally based on state population size. States then engage in redistricting, creating or redrawing geographic subdivisions with relatively equal-sized populations for each House district. Timelines for the census and apportionment are provided in federal statute and generally occur as scheduled every decade. The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, however, affected 2020 census field operations and delivery of apportionment figures, and concerns remain about timing for the redistricting processes that follow. This Insight provides background on the typical timing of the census, apportionment, and redistricting, as well as a brief discussion of recent census operational changes and proposals, particularly those related to congressional apportionment and redistricting. Typical Timing—Census, Apportionment, and Redistricting Figure 1 illustrates a timeline of the typical census, apportionment, and redistricting processes. Federal statute requires that April 1 of any year ending in “0” marks the official decennial census date. A count known as the apportionment population, which reflects the total resident population in each state, is typically used to distribute House seats. Within nine months of the decennial census date (December 31 of the year ending in “0”), the Secretary of Commerce is to report the apportionment population to the President; the Census Bureau has often released apportionment counts publicly at about the same time.

As set forth in the accompanying brief and complaint, the 2020 election suffered from significant and unconstitutional irregularities in the Defendant States: • Non-legislative actors’ purported amendments to States’ duly enacted election laws, in violation of the Electors Clause’s vesting State legislatures with plenary authority regarding the appointment of presidential electors. • Intrastate differences in the treatment of voters, with more favorable allotted to voters – whether lawful or unlawful – in areas administered by local government under Democrat control and with populations with higher ratios of Democrat voters than other areas of Defendant States.
