论文摘要
我们使用投票区和选举数据来分析新罕布什尔州和缅因州的政治地理。我们发现，两个州国会区之间分裂线的位置与我们期望的明显不同，我们认为这很可能是由于现有的gerrymandering造成的。我们还讨论了只有两个地区的计划的经典公平措施的局限性。
We use voting precinct and election data to analyze the political geography of New Hampshire and Maine. We find that the location of dividing line between Congressional districts in both states are significantly different than what we would expect, which we argue is likely due to incumbent gerrymandering. We also discuss the limitations of classical fairness measures for plans with only two districts.
