    I agree with you - and that’s why gerrymandering is a problem, because it makes the last 2 questions more valuable to study for. As for statistics, that’s for pollsters and analysts to work on.

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