The Gerrymander Results

Last week I posted a fun "rank your favorite gerrymander" post. The results are in and IL-4 made everyone's list.



Personally I found all of them cases of bad gerrymandering. Some like IL-4 and our very own MD-3 are only connected at times by highway. Others like the NY and NJ districts that are were listed and MD-2 and MD-3 jump over bodies of water. Then there are states like PA and FL that go block by block in some areas.

Some states are particularly bad. IL, NC, and MD have some very bad districts, but PA takes the cake as the single worst across the board.
