Tired of politicians redrawing maps to rig wins? Jerremy, Dave, and Reed dismantle gerrymandering as democracy's silent manipulator, birthed in 1812 and now supercharged by data. They spotlight solutions like county-line districts and tech upgrades to foster competition, while stressing civic education's role in preparing generations—think mock elections—to demand pragmatic leaders over polarized extremes.
