Well, I'm not against measures to prove you live where you say you do. That's done in the voter registration process. But Gerrymandering? I know you're trying to be snarky but my question was sincere, so I will respond sincerely. Gerrymandering is a process in which legislators draw districts in manner that causes them to choose their constituents. It can result in districts with widely different needs and concerns. Drawing the most compact districts possible can result in districts that will have their needs better addressed.
