Gerrymandering Enrichment
This document contains 20 grids of letters that appear to represent election results. Each grid contains 10 rows and 10 columns of either the letters "R", "D", or blank spaces. The repetition of the grids suggests this may be an example of how electoral maps can be manipulated through gerrymandering to favor one political party over another.
