So, do you guys support making districts that make no attempt to collect people with similar occupations, political views, societal interests, or whatever?
Worthy goals include:
1. what you say about districts with similar interests
2. maximizing competitive districts
3. adhering to the law regarding minority representation
4. hewing to other political boundaries such as municipal ones, and county ones, and in general considering erose lines to be a negative
5. having the percentage of the vote somewhat match the percentage of seats won in a given state
And yes, these five parameters sometimes conflict, and after hewing to the extant law, it is balancing test time.
