The March 1 primary election will mark the first time Texas is using the new political map approved by lawmakers during last year’s redistricting process.

Redistricting occurs every decade after new Census numbers are released. Though the intention is to resize districts based on the new population figures, it’s often a highly politicized process that benefits the political party in charge of drawing the new district lines.
Critics say the new maps are intentionally discriminatory, breaking up some minority communities in Texas and diluting the growth of people of color. The architects behind the map have claimed that the process was “race blind” and were drawn with no knowledge of racial makeup.
Voters heading to the polls for the primary may be surprised to learn they’re in a new district or that their current representative was drawn out of their district.
