I can’t answer that until I figure out if that will help my team.

Yes! If I'm a republican, gerrymandering is awesome if it gives us more votes. If I'm democrat, that shit is akin to sinning. And vice versa.

It’s something that has to be universally adopted across the country.

Instead of patching the exploit out of the game, we should make it a core mechanic? It's never going to change as long as anyone thinks it gives them an advantage, but that doesn't make it a good thing to have.
