Reel 3: In the third part of the delimitation explainer series, Varghese K. George explains what gerrymandering is and how constituency boundaries can be drawn to influence electoral outcomes. He explains why having equal numbers of voters in each constituency does not necessarily ensure equal representation, and breaks down how ‘cracking’ and ‘packing’ can affect the distribution of seats and democratic representation.
