What is gerrymandering? the use of redistricting to unfairly disenfranchise specific groups of people. a legal process that helps parties keep power. a federally governed process designed to ensure equal representation. a system of checks and balances used to ensure fairness in the House of Representatives.

Gerrymandering is definitely not a legal process though some try to get away with it. It's used by the political party in charge of redistricting to skew the proportion of voters in a district towards their political party so they receive more representation in the government than other parties.
