        Gerrymandering is a concept based upon controlling the voter base through unfair or targeted groupings, districts, etc… For a Statewide vote that’s not a factor. The entire State votes, there are no districts.

        It’s a popular vote. How are you gonna gerrymander that? It’s one person one vote. There may be other voting suppression going on but definitely not gerrymandering.
