VOTING RIGHTS
#73
Supreme Court to Take On Gerrymandering

I wish Congress would pass fair bi-partisan legislation that strictly defines how voting districts can be drawn and mandates that district maps be drawn only by a transparent non-partisan body.  Districting should not be done by one political party.

That would avoid or significantly reduce the problem of gerrymandering, whereby the ruling/majority party redraws voting districts in a manner which gives them an unfair advantage in elections. 

Below is a very good and short video explaining 'gerrymandering' and how it leads to unfair election results.
