@TonyStark totally support independent redistricting commission efforts and am part of them in WA but the real solution to #Gerrymandering is to move away from #SingleWinner elections and toward #MultiMemberDistricts and #ProportionalRepresentation.
No district/map that elects a single person can be fair.
A district with multiple representatives means that voters can choose their representatives based upon how they Think, not where they live.
We had good candidates last cycle but in a 55/45 district where every position is elected in a single winner election, the 55% majority gets every single position.
The current system drives candidates and voters away. If you change the incentives, it has been shown that you will get more and better candidates and voters want to participate because it no longer feels pointless.
