A state's boundary can be changed through several methods, including:
-
Legislation: State legislatures or Congress may pass laws to alter boundaries, often requiring agreements between affected states.
-
Judicial Decisions: Courts can resolve disputes over boundaries, leading to changes based on legal rulings.
-
Referendums: Voter approval can lead to boundary changes, especially if local populations desire to join adjacent states or create new political divisions.
