Due to the 2010 Census, Newberry County has undergone redistricting. The electoral district boundaries were redrawn to keep district populations equal. Redistricting has caused changes in Congressional, House, County Council, School and City Council districts. Legislature, and/or councils work with the Budget and Control Office of Research and Statistics to redraw the district lines.

Why do we have to change district lines?

In the 1960s, the US Supreme Court found that decades of maintaining the same districts had led to vast inequalities in district populations. That is, some districts had very large populations while others had very low populations. The Supreme Court found that this population inequality (also called mal-apportionment) was a violation of the US Constitution's guarantee to equal protection. This is because the votes of people living in very populous districts were "worth less" than the votes of people living in less populated districts. As a result, in order to comply with the Constitution, districts must contain about the same number of people so that votes are "worth" about the same amount. This is sometimes called the "one person, one vote" requirement.
