You know what gerrymandering is?
When you carve up congressional districts in a way that makes them easier to win.
Pretty simple stuff.
Every party does it.
It's not just a Democrat thing.
Okay, let's just be clear on that.
However, the Democrats carved up, let's just use California, in such a way, follow me, this is super important.
Everybody paying attention, stop what you're doing.
What's that line from Aliens?
Stop your grinning and drop your linen, whatever you're doing, stop.
Just listen, this is super important, okay?
You had districts in California, congressional districts, where there were a lot of throwaway, what's called wasted votes.
What's a wasted vote?
Anything over 50%.
What do you mean, Dan?
Because you don't need more than 51 or 50.1% of the vote to win.
That's it.
That's what you need in a binary.
If you get 53% of the vote, you didn't need two of those 3%.
You can go and send them into another district to help them win where they may have lost by one, 51-49.
