Thank you for explaining this in terms that the layperson can understand. As a lawyer, I get it but I am often exhausted at trying to break it down for those who only have 30 second attention spans and don't understand why gerrymandering for nefarious purposes, such as, control by the minority rule, is WRONG and un-democratic. Although I read somewhere just yesterday that extreme right MAGA are now casting democracy as "WOKE' and left wing and liberal. Does anyone know what the Constitution was meant to do? Granted the people in charge then were also hypocrites, they didn't want equality or freedom for all, just landowning white males, so I guess it is kind of on brand that they don't want equal rights for women and minorities. We are in deep doo doo.
