        That’s pedestrian level gerrymandering. You should see some of NC’s districts (see 1st 4th & 12th)

        Pennsylvania used to look like this. Their state Supreme Court deemed it illegal and redrew the districts to be fair. The next election (2018) they went from having ZERO women in Congress to now having FOUR. Ending gerrymandering would fix so many things.

        too bad the courts saw this as legal party based gerrymandering rather than the racial gerrymandering it actually is
