Gerrymandering definition:


Gerrymandering is the practice of setting boundaries of electoral districts to favor specific political interests within legislative bodies, often resulting in districts with convoluted, winding boundaries rather than compact areas. Gerrymandering in the United States has been used as early as 1788 to increase the power of a political party; the term "gerrymandering" was coined on review of Massachusetts's redistricting maps of 1812 set by Governor Elbridge Gerry, so named for its resemblance to a salamander.

Answer:

Gerrymandering is when a political group tries to change a voting district to create a result that helps them or hurts the group who is against them. Gerrymandering works by wasting votes.

Read Robert Frost’s “The Road Not Taken”. What two themes are expressed in the poem?
Advocard [28]

Answer:

Indecision and the desire for to be unique

Explanation:

Indecision

In reality, the persona of the poem has a choice to make between two paths in the woods.  Both have been worn and he would like to take both but he can only walk one.  Therefore, he decided to take the one that was less traveled.  Metaphorically, though, the narrator has to choose between two options, one will be easy to take and will make his life easier. However, the other one, which has been chosen less often, will perhaps be the better moral choice.  This poem could be related to the idea of "staying on the straight and narrow".  While sometimes it may be easier to take a path in life that is smoother, the narrator says that the path that is less traveled is the better one.  Taking that path made a difference in his life.

The desire for to be unique

The speaker claims to have chosen the "road less traveled," but at the outset of the poem, he acknowledges that both paths are "worn about the same." This suggests that the speaker's choice wasn't as brave or unique as he wants others to believe, calling into question whether it is our actual choices or the way in which we think about them that truly affects our lives.
