In 2024 this was brought to court and the Federal court held up the gerrymandering. They believed that it was gerrymandered to benefit the Republican party and we are aware of it. This gerrymandering caused a congressional seat to cover Nashville, and one for Memphis. When we only have one shot at someone representing us in a house or senate position, we lose the illusion of choice we had previously. Now only one candidate has to win the popular vote, which isn’t hard when you can follow the MAGA train.
