[EL] Flaws in Politico and NY Times articles about gerrymandering

[Kogan, Vladimir]

As Eric McGhee and I showed<http://u.osu.edu/kogan.18/files/2014/08/govca-25eiqbe.pdf> a few years ago, California’s commission-produced maps produced a substantive increase in competitive districts for the congressional plan, but not for either of the two state legislative plans.
