    Illinois at it's finest...

    So what is one of the worst examples of gerrymandering in the country? What is the example that the national media uses when talking about gerrymandering? Illinois' congressional district 4, including parts of Chicago, represented by congressman Luis Gutierrez. Check out the map below and tell me if you don't think this is the most ridiculous political game ever. Apparently they had to run the district through the middle of Interstate 294 so that they could maintain a contiguous area of homogenous constituents.


    Go Dems
    Keep on Civin'

        Let computers do it. Have both parties agree to the parameters used. (that discussion would be interesting)
        At least once it's agreed to, it would work out OK.

              It's an abuse of power when either side does it, and the method should be changed. But when either party has the power, they don't willingly give it up. What a surprise.
              Didn't I just cover this?

                  I like this idea.

                    No, that district was obviously a very audacious proposal.

                      No way! Computers will consistently support Libertarian candidates to hasten the demise of the human race.

                        Maybe if those racist white democrats would vote for a black democrat every once in a while we wouldn't be able to nail them with this.
