    Whether you personally like the way states define voting districts is not the rule or the point. If you don’t like it, then go with the US Constitutional Amendment process; sorry if it is “hard”.

The people who would have to vote for an amendment, are the same people who gerrymandered the districts to keep themselves in power.

When a system is not democratic, it is not possible to work within the system to achieve democracy.
