A long time favorite gerrymander in Republican controlled districts where VBM is not available has to do with the distribution of voting machines. If you vote in a white suburb, or your polling place is the local Golf and Country Club, (neighborhoods which almost always lean Republican) you walk in to vote and can take your pick from dozens of idle and available voting machines. If you vote in a poor neighborhood, or on a college campus, (where historically Republicans aren’t as easily elected) you often wind up standing in line for many, many, hours in order to access one of the truly inadequate number of voting machines available there. People ned to go to the bathroom, or back to work, and often just give up and don’t vote. In some precincts around the country, people who don’t get to the head of the line by the time the polls close are sent home and not allowed to vote at all. There’s a reason that nothing in the proposed legislation requires an equitable distribution of *voting machines* in all precincts, based on population. And, it’s not an accidental oversight.
