The science that now goes into campaigns and trying to manipulate the vote is pretty interesting and scary.

Yeah it's getting out of hand.
Gerrymandering is not Democratic, no matter who's doing it. 1 person = 1 vote . Very simple. Gerrymandering takes the power of the vote out if the hands if the people and in the hands of politicians and that's unconstitutional
