Maybe you can enlighten me how the shape plays a role here? In the end isn't this about how close the absolute vote matches the political outcome? One could easily come up with rectangular districts that skew the result, right? I am from somewhere where all important democratic elections are won by absolute numbers, so we don't even have the whole problem. |

The term gerrymandering comes from a district that was drawn so convoluted that it looked like a Salamander.
If you want fair elections, without districts being gerrymandered, just draw rectangles with about equal populations and be done with it.
