Under the Dome

Monitoring the progress of the new GOP-backed congressional map


Listen Later

This week, host Dawn Vaughan and reporter Kyle Ingram discuss (so far, successful) efforts by Republicans in the legislature to redraw the state’s congressional map.


There’s a long history of redistricting and gerrymandering in North Carolina. In Monster: Maps, Math & Power in North Carolina — a four-part podcast series by former investigative reporter Tyler Dukes — The N&O explores how maps are drawn, their political impact on the state and the ongoing fight against gerrymandering. Find all four episodes here, or listen to them individually:

  • Part 1: So you want to make a map...
  • Part 2: What gerrymandering isn’t
  • Part 3: Math on the front lines
  • Part 4: Making NC maps in 2021

  • Host: Dawn Vaughan

    Guest: Kyle Ingram

    Executive Producer: Laura Brache
