    If everyone knows gerrymandering is bad, why is it still allowed to happen?

      Because a good chunk of the population doesn’t understand what it is and why it’s bad, and a serious percentage of politicians benefit from it.

        Are you saying its essentially a thing Republicans don’t know about or understand? I have to assume every democrat has heard the word, and it has simple explanations too.

        I was under the impression republicans knee but defended it but it could be an ignorance thing, thats a fair point.
