The efficiency gap measure of gerrymandering, which involves placing voters into electoral districts in a way that increases the wasted votes of one political faction and decreases the wasted votes of the other, is based on wasted votes.
By drawing electoral district lines to benefit certain political interests inside legislative bodies, a technique known as gerrymandering, districts are frequently created that have twisted, tangled boundaries rather than compact ones. It is the process of redistricting legislative districts to suit the ruling political party.
Because the ruling party will do all it takes to increase the advantage of its rival in its stronger districts, gerrymandering has an unintended negative impact on congressional elections.
This is unjust because it gives some voters less sway than others, skews the vote in one direction, prolongs the tenure of the incumbent, and increases the likelihood that members of the incumbent's party will win office in subsequent elections.
