Doubtful, since the GOP majority in the House survives only by

That may be true in a few carefully selected districts but there are
plenty of states where the whole place is red and they have to
gerrymander a district to get a democrat elected.

We have some of that here.

California has made it an art. Was so bad we voted to have a semi
independent commission draw voting lines. The Dem's still manipulated the
boundaries.

Just the fact the commission had to include specifics for better minority
representation makes it Gerrymandered. As even the very liberal news here
states, the Legislature is way more Liberal than the state as a whole.
