2.9 Gerrymandering Things
1. 13 minutes, 31 seconds.
2. A nonpartisan state agency.
3. The state legislature which is pretty much controlled by the Republican party shoved all of most of the Democrats into 13th and 14th districts, and most of their voters did vote Democrat.
4. District 1 is split fifty fifty, meaning that politicians have more competition at this place.
5. It is not dense at all congressional district in the country.
6. Only 5 districts are controlled by democrats, however somehow in 2012 President Obama won the state by 5 points.
7. 3rd, 9th, 11th, and 13th
8. It has 100% Republican voters.
9. John Boehner. It is very important that the leader of the Republican Party had a safe seat, and didn't have to really worry about opponents.
10. I would probably say Ohio was the worst thing that I have seen in a while, and we both know what my grade is, Mr. Rakestraw.
