NEW YORK, Sept. 16 (Xinhua) -- As the midterm election nears in the United States, the topic of districts redrawn is being picked up again in Fayetteville, North Carolina, which mirrors political division in the city, and even in the state and the whole nation, reported Carolina Public Press on Thursday.

In North Carolina, districts were redrawn three times from 2010 to 2019, due to court cases that considered previous drawings to be cases of gerrymandering, a political practice committed by both Democrats and Republicans, that forms maps in a way that favors one political party over another.
