Reply to comment by eloel- in eli5 What is gerrymandering? by Robert-Connorson

> You could, however, rig the field. If you split the 21 into groups so that it's 4a/3b, 4a/3b, 0a/7b, you can get A more representatives than B. This is gerrymandering.

Or you could get 3/4, 3/4, 2/5 and end up with a 0/3 divide in representatives.

It can go both ways.
