Answer:

4.The primary goals of gerrymandering are to maximize the effect of supporters' votes and to minimize the effect of opponents' votes. ... By "cracking" districts, a political party would be able to maintain, or gain, legislative control by ensuring that the opposing party's voters are not the majority in specific districts.

5. Gerrymandering means to draw congressional districts to the advantage of the political party that controls the State's legislature. This is a tactic that does not give equal representation to minority groups in the Congress.
