Your Legal Rights starts with Democracy, and we've presented broadcasts on such subjects as preserving democracy, threats to our democracy and how votes are counted. Tonight features a topic of gerrymandering — moving district lines to alter the outcome of an election by predetermining the districts in which you cast your vote. Is it wrong for the party in power in a state to draw district lines to dilute the number of representatives the other party sends to the state capital?
