The Plunger Art of the WIGOP Gerrymander

Supreme Court decision doesn't change gerrymandering issue. Here's what you need to know. (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, 6/22/2018)
What is gerrymandering? Every 10 years, legislative and congressional district boundaries must be redrawn to account for changes in population to ensure the constitutional mandate of one person, one vote.
Gerrymandering is when politicians deliberately draw legislative boundaries to give their party an advantage at the polls — packing the opposing party into a handful of districts or cracking districts and distributing opposing voters across a large number of districts to dilute their votes. It’s a very old political trick, dating to the earliest days of the republic. Both sides do it. (But in Wisconsin, never in such a blatantly cynical (1b) manner as the GOP did after the 2010 census.)
But in a handful of other states, politicians have done something astonishing: They have given up that power.
