Answer:

The correct answer is D. Districts in a state are drawn to favor a specific political party.

Explanation:

Gerrymandering refers to a practice in which an unfair political advantage is established to benefit a specific party. This unfair political advantage is made through the manipulation of some district boundaries. They are usually utilized in electoral systems based on the first-past-the-post system.  

Two main tactics are used in Gerrymandering, "cracking" and "packing". There is another tactic called homogenization concerning all districts.

11. What was the job of the first Congress?​
irinina [24]
The 1st United States Congress, comprising the United States Senate and the United States House of Representatives, met from March 4, 1789, to March 4, 1791, during the first two years of George Washington's presidency, first at Federal Hall in New York City and later at Congress Hall in Philadelphia. With the initial meeting of the First Congress, the United States federal government officially began operations under the new (and current) frame of government established by the 1787 Constitution. The apportionment of seats in the House of Representatives was based on the provisions of Article I, Section 2, Clause 3 of the Constitution. Both chambers had a Pro-Administration majority. Twelve articles of amendment to the Constitution were passed by this Congress and sent to the states for ratification; the ten ratified as additions to the Constitution on December 15, 1791, are collectively known as the Bill of Rights, with an additional amendment ratified more than two centuries later to become the Twenty-seventh Amendment to the United States Constitution. Hope this helped!

The founding fathers who wrote the constituiton were similar in that they<br>​
Crazy boy [7]

In the wars that the “founding fathers”, the main leaders of the colonists at that time, stood out.

It was these leaders who drafted, in 1776, the Declaration of Independence of the United States and, after the war, in 1787, composed the so-called Bill Of Rights, that is, the Bill of Rights, the Constitution of the United States of America, which prevails until today. For this reason, they were called "founding fathers", or "fouding fathers", as they are considered to be those who gave the United States a political-legal architecture, claiming its right to exist as an independent nation-state.

The main names among the “founding fathers” are: <u>John and Samuel Adams, George Washington (who became the first president), Thomas Jefferson, George Clymer, Benjamin Franklin, George Tylor and George Rea.</u>
