[quote=Anonymous]The thing about gerrymandering is that it thins the margins in a lot more districts. That reliably red or blue district is now a little more purple. So what was a comfortable 20 point margin is now a 10 point margin. And that can bite back in a wave election. A ruling party's losses can be magnified by their gerrymandering in a wave election. And everything is shaping up for a massive Blue Wave election next November. So in some ways, Republicans are putting more seats in play with their gerrymandering. In any event, this is a stupid system. No other nation allows politicians to choose their voters. [/quote]
