• Summary:In order to study the use of computers in redistricting, in the fall of 2004 we surveyed redistricting authorities in all fifty states concerning their use of computers in the 1990 and 2000 rounds of redistricting. This dataset supplements our replication dataset for "Crayons to Computers," and adds the following variables: <list type="bulleted"> <itm> Four variables representing the capabilities of the computer system used: soft_geographic_reports, soft_tabulation, soft_automated_redistricting, and soft_thematic_mapping</itm> <itm>Two measures of plan compactness: compact_reock, compact_pa</itm> <itm>One measure of competitiveness: competitiveness</itm> <itm>Number of districts: number_districts</itm></list>Cf: http://doi.org/10.3886/ICPSR01317.v1
