重划选区

And, this being a census year, outcomes in state legislative elections will presumably affect redistricting and congressional election results in the next decade.

另外，2000年也是实行人口普查的一年，各州立法选举将可能会影响选区重划及未来十年的国会选举。

Traditionally, electoral redistricting is done manually.

传统上，选区重划都是以人工方式划分。

We have proposed a series of automatic electoral redistricting mechanisms that were emphasized on producing huge amount of feasible solutions and selecting the right solutions from them.

过去我们提出了一系列的选区划分方法，著重於产生大量的划分解集合，并从中挑选形状较佳之解，却没有考虑到维持乡镇市层级行政区之完整性。

But another Democrat, Andrew Cuomo, New York's popular attorney-general, is well ahead of Mr Giuliani and Mr Lazio, even among Republican voters. The 2010 election is especially important at state level, with 37 governors' mansions up for grabs. The governors, along with state legislators, will control redistricting after the 2010 census, with profound implications for the 2012 and all subsequent elections.

但是另一位民主党人，纽约州受欢迎的司法部长Cuomo，却领先于Giuliani和Lazio，即使在共和党选民中也是如此。2010年37个州长的选举在州这一层级上是特别重要的选举。2010年的人口调查以后，州长和立法委员将掌握选区重划，这对于2012的总统选举以及之后的选举都有重要的指标作用。

The split between the two groups can hardly be papered over.

这两个团体间的分歧难以掩饰。

This approach not only encourages a greater number of responses, but minimizes the likelihood of stale groupthink.

这种做法不仅鼓励了更多的反应，而且减少跟风的可能性。
