Then make the districts bigger to compensate for this effect.




Increasing it up to the state level maybe any smaller and you'll still have room for gerrymandering. Could even have districts still for people to have a person to directly go to but who represents which district is down to the statewide percentages. I'd love to see something like that combined with a ranked choice system. First past the post really heavily incentivizes a 2 party system.
