Obviously, but no one votes on it. People have had ample opportunity throughout basically all of American history to actually show their disapproval but they’re too afraid of a Democrat (or a Republican) in power to actually “punish” the gerrymanderers.

I disapprove of gerrymandering.
I disapprove more of letting republicans unilaterally gerrymander.

I know we’re not supposed to have a tyranny of the majority or a direct democracy, but man there should be a national ballot initiative. We can have a high threshold (30 mil signatures, 70% of vote to pass?).
