<br />r~ <br />U <br />C] <br /> <br />Population Equality <br />• The U.S. Constitution requires approximately equal <br />populations in districts of "representative" officials <br />such as city councilmembers. <br />• A maximum deviation of no more than 10% in total <br />population from the most populous district to the <br />least populous is prima facie constitutional. <br />• Using the new census data, determine whether <br />existing districts still satisfy the 10% requirement. If <br />not, you should redistrict. <br />O 2°01 Bickmt•H, H<Nh, Smiry, Pdv4 ICcvar d MaDwcl, LLP. ,~ <br />~,,~ <br />k~~ <br />l <br />The census <br />reveals <br /> <br />l <br />ti <br />- <br />~ '~ ~ ~ <br />-~~___. <br />popu <br />a <br />on ---. <br />imbalance ~ ~ ,,~ <br />and triggers ~ <br />the <br />~1 <br />requirement ~ ~~ <br />~ ~~ ~ <br />~ <br />~ <br />to redistrict. -- <br />- <br />- <br /> Before Redistricting <br />After redistricting, <br />each of the <br />districts will have ~ ~ ~ .~ 1 <br />roughly equal ~ <br />population and the `~ ~ ~ ~ ~I <br />districts with the r ]~ <br />greatest population I <br />will not be more `~ ~ ~ ~ <br />than 10% larger ~~ <br />than the districts t J~ ) l <br />with the least ~---__`.=~ ~ ___ <br />population.
