On whether Wisconsin is the most gerrymandered state.  (PolitiFact Wisconsin, 6/18/2018)
A federal court had said maps drawn in 2011 by Wisconsin Republicans were among the most heavily skewed to one party of any plan in the country going back more than 40 years. 
And, with the caveat that there isn’t a universally accepted definition of gerrymander, two studies put Wisconsin at or near the top.
