Ground War: Courts, Commissions, and the Fight over Partisan Gerrymanders
Nicholas Goedert, Assistant Professor of Political Science Nicholas Goedert
In Ground War, Nicholas Goedert tackles the controversies, litigation, and effects surrounding partisan gerrymandering of Congress. He contends that the appropriate actors to address the fairness of a map are nonpartisan commissions within each state, not the US courts. Using multiple empirical approaches, Goedert shows that nonpartisan commissions, adopted state-by-state, represent the best alternative to legislative districting. A rigorous account thatexplains how our system works and provides practical solutions for improving it, Ground War is an essential work for all scholars of US elections.
