UNGERRYMANDER AMERICA What is Gerrymandering? Gerrymandering is the single most important tool Democrats & Republicans use to disenfranchise general citizens. To gerrymander is to draw the boundaries of the electoral maps of each State to ensure that members of that party win. The result is that if a voter lives in a Red State, the legislature/governor of that state draws the electoral map to ensure that Republicans win. Or, like in Oregon, a Blue State, the maps are drawn to ensure that Democrat party candidates win. In both instances, citizens and our democracy lose. |
