I'm not saying that getting rid of Gerrymandering would solve any real substantial problem that the US has, but like, why is this still a thing?
It's easily solvable, and it seems like neither party really gets all that much more out of it than the other, so why not just get rid of it?
Doesn't the redistricting process fall under federal control? So, they could just tell the states they can't do it anymore, right?
If it ain't broke don't fix it. It's kept the two parties in power for a long time. They aren't particularly concerned about the optics because it has been hypernormalized.
