It seems to me that a requirement that districts have to be convex may make gerrymandering significantly more difficult. Is that a good idea? I suppose we would have to make allowance for non-convex natural borders, of course, but perhaps such a rule could be imposed to the extent it is possible. Is anybody aware of any political jursidiction that has adopted such a requirement? Steve Barney Oshkosh, WI
