The release of the new Census numbers in 2021 has again moved redistricting into the national consciousness. Society is confronted with the need to create and evaluate districting maps. In this talk, given at SIAM Annual Meeting in July, Dr. Mattingly explores questions such as: Can we recognize gerrymandering when we see it? Is proportionality relevant? What is fair? How does the geopolitical geometry inform these answers? Watch the video now.
