All Gerrymandering

The headlines say it all...not even close. "Pundits missed election tidal wave, " "How did pollsters miss GOP tsunami?" The pollsters were not askew in their predictions, they just didn't take into account how the Republicans rigged the election, by gerrymandering (redrawing) voting districts around the country, so they favored Republican politicians. That simple and easily verifiable. 

How could the media have missed this Republican election tactic? Republican national chairman Ed Gillespie and his crew did it in plain sight. 

It wasn't money, negative ads and Super Pacs that gave Republicans out of proportion victories against all odds, it was the GOP's gerrymandering voting districts. This was another case of Republican election dirty tricks and it will happen again next election if nothing is done.
