Answer:

Gerrymandering

Step-by-step explanation:

Gerrymandering is a controversial method of defining in area terms the electoral districts of a territory to gain advantage in the number of elected (usually parliamentary) political representatives, especially where the majority voting system with the district vote is used. Gerrymandering can also serve to favor or harm a particular ethnic, linguistic, religious or social or partisan group.
