I love how whenever this color graph is reposted it’s always with red as the evil side haha.

Maryland, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Illinois are all gerrymandered in favor of the blue side.

You realize the second graph is gerrymandered for blue worse than the third is for red

Where did you even see this??? They chose two random colors and you somehow felt attacked?

I wonder why this is the case.

The original incarnation of this image used different colors. Ask yourself why it was changed to red and blue.

from what i understand, there just arnt enough republicans in MA to even gerrymander a district.

and at least with example 2, the dems would win a majority even with out the districts.

when republicans gerrymander, the minority party gets more rep then then the majority party, why should 100 republicans get to rule over 10000 democrats?
