@cwarshaw @SeanTrende of all the measures, the efficiency gap makes the most sense to me. but fwiw compactness / packing-cracking limitations could plausibly be imposed statutorily; it's just that no one (except ordinary citizens) cares about it — PolitiTweet.org

@SeanTrende @cwarshaw that's a nice way to make sense of it, though of course i do think there are some valid local concerns out there! maybe most of all, it's a reminder of how much messier it is to deal with congressional gerrymandering by evaluating every map by state — PolitiTweet.org
