[quote=Anonymous]Gerrymandering is a feature of democracy that will always be with us, there is no real way to avoid it. Right now we as a country are struggling with a problem created by technology, as improved information technology now allows extremely high-resolution gerrymandering that goes way beyond what was historically commonplace. That said, there is no easy or obvious way to control it, although some of the excesses could surely be reined in. Maryland is unquestionably a blue state, but that obscures the progressive-vs-centrist debate that is probably going to be the most important political development over the next few years. Competence is also very important in elections for state governors and you often sees moderate governors of the opposing party in states when such a candidate is particularly strong. [/quote]
