    Redistricting NM 2021 A troubled history and opportunities for change. By Gwyneth Doland Term Faculty, University of New Mexico Department of Communication and Journalism Commissioned by New Mexico in Depth Supported by the Thornburg Foundation Table of Contents A Glossary of Terms 3 Executive Summary 5 Introduction 8 Decisions Made Behind Closed Doors 11 Advantages for Incumbents 13 Vulnerability to Partisan Manipulation 16 A History of Racial Discrimination in Voting 19 and Redistricting An Evolving Process 23 Looking Forward 26 Sources 27 Acknowledgments 29 Report: A History of Redistricting in New Mexico | 02 A Glossary of Terms Adapted and condensed from “A Guide to State and Congressional Redistricting in New Mexico 2011,” prepared by the Legislative Council Service Apportionment: The process of assigning the number of members of Congress that each state may elect following each census. At large: When one or several candidates run for an office, and they are elected by the whole area of a local political subdivision, they are being elected at large. Census: The enumeration or count of the population as mandated by the Unit- ed States Constitution. Community of interest: A community defined by actual shared interests, be they political, social or economic. Compactness: Having the minimum distance between all the parts of a con- stituency (a circle is the most compact district). There are various methods of measuring compactness. Contiguity: All parts of a district being connected at some point with the rest of the district and not divided into two or more discrete pieces. Deviation: The degree by which a single district’s population varies from the “ideal” may be stated in terms of “absolute deviation” or “relative deviation.” Absolute deviation is equal to the difference between a district’s actual popula- tion and its ideal population, expressed as a plus (+) or minus (-) number indi- cating that the district’s population exceeds or falls short of that ideal.
