Interesting. My country Pakistan, took a different approach in the last elections. An algorithm [1] was agreed upon, on how to draw constituency boundaries for each district. Further, there can ordinarily only be 10% variation between constituencies in a single district. The entire delimitations exercise was done in open, and there were multiple review steps. I imagine the algorithm could be further improved, but it at least ensured some amount of certainty and transparency. ------
[1] As far as possible, the delimitation of constituencies of an Assembly shall start from the Northern end of the district1[**] and then proceed clock-wise in zigzag manner keeping in view that population among the constituencies of an Assembly shall remain as close as may be practicable to the quota: https://www.ecp.gov.pk/documents/laws2017/1-3-2020/The%20Ele... |
