A Primer on 2021 Gerrymandering
Gerrymandering is a time-honored tradition in American politics. Every ten years, in the states that have sufficient power, Democrats or Republicans figure out how to draw lines to lock in their legislative power as comprehensively and permanently as they can. Gerrymandering works by drawing lines in a certain way to maximize the number of seats a party wins, either in the House of Representatives or in the State House and State Senate.
