Gerrymandering is where you make sure all your districts are 51/49 in favor of you, and all your opositions are 90/10, so you get more representatives

What you are complaining about is actually the exact tactics of the left, which is to expand their city boundaries so that their dense homogenous voters swing elections in the surrounding districts.

When the left does it’s called redistributing, when the right does it it’s called gerrymandering.
