Draw district lines to win elections with fewer supporters than the opposition.












Here is an excerpt from Gerrymandle's description on the game's official website:
What is gerrymandering? Gerrymandering is drawing electoral district lines to favor one party over another. Two techniques do most of the work. Packing concentrates opponents into a few districts they win by a landslide, burning their surplus votes on margins they didn't need. Cracking splits their remaining voters across other districts so they fall just short everywhere. Together, a party can win a majority of seats with a minority of the overall vote.
You are in charge of drawing the district lines for the elections. Click adjacent tiles on the map to group them into a district. Each district must be one connected shape, no islands allowed. Colored houses show where voters live. Not every tile on the board has one, some are just empty land.
A party wins a district by having more houses in it than any other party. If two parties tie in a district, nobody wins it. It is your job to draw regions so that blue wins more regions than anyone else and wins the election.
Submit your answer when you think you have found the best distribution for blue. There is also a hint button available if you get stuck. Good luck gerrymandering!
