Fake President got one thing right during his campaign. US elections are rigged. Rigged by unconscionable gerrymandering by political parties in control. Both sides do it but the attached grahic shows how bad it is in Alabama. Had the voters been voting for their seven House Representatives, the exact same vote would have placed 6 Republicans and 1 Democrat, inspite of Democratic statewide vote advantage of over 20,000.

A fair,  impartial voting district creation system needs to be implemented taking the political parties out of the process. League of Women Voters?
