(BOISE, IDAHO) During the 2026 election cycle, Republicans enacted a series of gerrymanders – a form of partisan redistricting – in a handful of states to give them a disproportionate edge over Democrats in their congressional delegations. Democrats responded with a successful redistricting effort in California and an unsuccessful one in Virginia.
Gerrymandering has obvious implications for fairness and democracy, characterized by some as politicians picking their voters, not voters picking their politicians.
