Que bono?

I have read (but cannot quote) that if all gerrymanders ended that Republicans would pick up 5-10 congressional seats. So Republicans

But, Democrats are currently complaining about Republican gerrymandering efforts. So Democrats

Independents would gain increased ability to sit at the fulcrum

All people would benefit from the end to the pettiness and skulduggery and the increased accountability of their public servants

As of today, Missouri, Virginia, Illinois, North Carolina, California, and I am sure others are conniving at gaining a little advantage for one party or the other. Texas just did so.

Commissions

Why not just put a nonpartisan committee of the wise and unbiased to do the redistricting?
Such laws are in place in California, New York, Connecticut.
In practice these commissions have been captured by one party or another. California currently has 43 of 52 seats held by Democrats despite Republicans having a far higher proportion of the state. And the democrats wish to remove the commission to gerrymander in another three or four seats.
AI suggested having longterm mass citizen participation to guarantee fair redistricting. Oh still my beating heart!!

Job’s deluded friend
Eliphaz speaking at 5:12 et seq
He would believe in commissions

[God] frustrates the devices of the crafty, so that their hands achieve no success.

He catches the wise in their own craftiness, and the schemes of the wily are brought to a quick end.

They meet with darkness in the daytime and grope at noonday as in the night.

Why do the wicked live, reach old age, and grow mighty in power?
Their offspring are established in their presence, and their descendants before their eyes.
Their houses are safe from fear, and no rod of God is upon them.
Their bull breeds without fail; their cow calves and does not miscarry.
They send out their little boys like a flock, and their children dance.
They sing to the tambourine and the lyre and rejoice to the sound of the pipe.
They spend their days in prosperity,

Gerrymandering has been a successful long term wicked scheme

The spirit of Federalist 51

James Madison said that “if men were angels, we would not need government to secure rights.”
This amendment aims to correct an evil by using Madison’s ideas of offsetting powers for the correction. The idea is that competing mathematical ideas will force a good solution.

Qualms and arguments against

This may not be a subject worthy of the constitution. It is killing a fly with a 10 pound sledgehammer.
This will not generate the perfect solution.
It is long and clunky – (but it is less than half the length of the 14th or the failed 25th amendments.)
I note that section 2b will force emphasis on less dense areas, leaving more scope for skullduggery in densely populated areas. I have fiddled with alternative formulae (geometric means etc.) but have found nothing better than what is suggested here. Perhaps a commenter will see a solution or at least an improvement.
