Since most Americans last voted for Congress, thousands of people have been added to certain voting districts — and subtracted from others — under new political maps enacted following court rulings.
Here's a look at how voting districts have changed — or could change — before the November elections and what affect that could have on the battle for control of Congress.
Perhaps the most notable is Florida, where a trial judge in September ruled that U.S. House districts pushed by Republican Gov.
Litigation over congressional districts also is lingering in Arkansas, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah and Wisconsin.
The reshaping of voting districts matters, but doesn't necessarily pre-determine the outcome of elections.
