Only one metric would logically follow from a republican government clause attack: the mean-median gap. A lot of the usual anti-gerrymandering would be irrelevant in this framework, like commissions, efficiency gap, compactness, communities of interest, proportionality, etc. — PolitiTweet.org

A guarantee-clause based attack might be very different than what you usually hear about on this website. It would narrowly establish that republican gvt = majority rule = can't draw maps that would thwart majority rule — PolitiTweet.org

If Texas GOP want to draw *every* district to be Trump+6 with ridiculous lines, it would be entirely consistent with majority rule (not consistent with VRA, but that's a separate question). But a map that's 50% Trump+15 would be a deliberate effort to allow for minority rule — PolitiTweet.org
