Gerrymandering is the practice of manipulating electoral boundaries to give unfair political advantage to a party or group. The term comes from a governor of Massachusetts, Elbridge Gerry, who in 1812, did just that, as illustrated in this political cartoon. https://t.co/9Zsli9LD7A — PolitiTweet.org

Improper redistricting practices can result in unequal representation in voting districts — communities of color, in particular, have dealt with the insidious effects of gerrymandering, often finding our neighborhoods split up among districts, rather than keeping us together. — PolitiTweet.org
