[edit] Summary

Description
English: How Gerrymandering can influence the result of elections in a non-proportional system. In each case there are 36 green and 28 magenta dots in total. Depending on how the 4 districts are designed, there can be a 3:1 or a 4:0 win for the greens, a 2:2 tie, or even a 1:3 win for the state-wide minority party (magenta).

I used Image:Gerrymander3.svg as a graphical source, but the number, distribution, and grouping of green/magenta dots it totally original. Made with Photoshop.
