Both sides are guilty of gerrymandering. If anything deserves a US constitutional amendment, it's the misuse of "redistricting". Truly undemocratic.

But you made the statement that Republicans in Texas were the king of redistricting, where as the dems in MD did it 4 years before them. My rep has never been to my area, doesn't know a thing about us. MD went from 4d and 4 r to 6d and 2r because of redistricting, Now that's a big percentage change. Look at a map of MD the repub. congressman out in Cumberland, his district now goes from the W.VA boarder and meanders to Baltimore, picking off repub areas here and there

How many times has MD been redistricted since 2000?
