“Gerrymandering is a threat to democracy in the United States”
Write a 10 sentence response to this statement. Your response must do 3 things:
Demonstrate your knowledge of GM
Explain how a democracy is supposed to work
Explain how Gerrymandering either does or doesn’t affect that.
Answer:
Gerrymandering (/ˈdʒɛrimændərɪŋ/,[1][2]) is a practice intended to establish an unfair political advantage for a particular party or group by manipulating district boundaries, which is most commonly used in first-past-the-post electoral systems.
Two principal tactics are used in gerrymandering: "cracking" (i.e. diluting the voting power of the opposing party's supporters across many districts) and "packing" (concentrating the opposing party's voting power in one district to reduce their voting power in other districts).[3] The top-left diagram in the graphic is a form of cracking where the majority party uses its superior numbers to guarantee the minority party never attains a majority in any district.
In addition to its use achieving desired electoral results for a particular party, gerrymandering may be used to help or hinder a particular demographic, such as a political, ethnic, racial, linguistic, religious, or class group, such as in Northern Ireland where boundaries were constructed to guarantee Protestant Unionist majorities.[4] The U.S. federal voting district boundaries that produce a majority of constituents representative of African-American or other racial minorities are known as "majority-minority districts". Gerrymandering can also be used to protect incumbents. Wayne Dawkings describes it as politicians picking their voters instead of voters picking their politicians.[5]
The term gerrymandering is named after Elbridge Gerry (pronounced like "Gary"[2]), who, as Governor of Massachusetts in 1812, signed a bill that created a partisan district in the Boston area that was compared to the shape of a mythological salamander. The term has negative connotations and gerrymandering is almost always considered a corruption of the democratic process

Answer with Explanation:
President McKinley was so concerned about his wife, Ida McKinley, because she became very ill after going through bad experiences: the death of her mother and the death of her two children. She became very dependent on her husband on many occasions and wanted much of his attention thereafter. This affected the president's time for work since he needed to spend time to care for his wife. The behavior of Ida reached many people who then concluded that she was crazy. President McKinley also placed Ida next to him during state dinners in anticipation of her seizures brought about by many years of suffering from headaches.

Read the excerpt then in at least 200 words, discuss the form of this excerpt from A Midsummer Night’s Dream. How do literary devices such as rhyme, meter, and symbolism convey meaning? A Midsummer Night's Dream HERMIA: But I beseech your grace that I may know The worst that may befall me in this case, If I refuse to wed Demetrius. THESEUS: Either to die the death or to abjure For ever the society of men. Therefore, fair Hermia, question your desires; Know of your youth, examine well your blood, Whether, if you yield not to your father’s choice, You can endure the livery of a nun, For aye to be in shady cloister mew’d, To live a barren sister all your life, Chanting faint hymns to the cold fruitless moon.
Answer:
"Either to die the death or to abjure For ever the society of men.Therefore, fair Hermia, question your desires; Know of your youth, examine well your blood." "You can endure the livery of a nun, For aye to be in shady cloister mew’d, To live a barren sister all your life, Chanting faint hymns to the cold fruitless moon." Out of these two sentences the rhymes are very hard to find in both sentences but the rhymes are "Either to die the death or to abjure For ever the society of men.","Chanting faint hymns to the cold fruitless moon." an example of Meter is "But I beseech your grace that I may know The worst that may befall me in this case." an example of Symbolism is "Know of your youth, examine well your blood,whether, if you yield not to your father’s choice".
