What is the term for the process of redrawing electoral district boundaries in the United States?

  1. Gerrymandering.

  2. Lobbying.

  3. Filibustering.

  4. Redistricting.

The correct answer is: Redistricting.

Redistricting is the correct term for the process of redrawing electoral district boundaries in the United States. Gerrymandering is a type of redistricting that involves manipulating district boundaries to benefit a particular political party or group. Lobbying is the act of attempting to influence political decisions, which is not directly related to redistricting. Filibustering is a tactic used by politicians to delay or prevent a vote on a particular issue, and it is also not directly related to redistricting. Therefore, the correct answer is D, redistricting.
