Gerrymandering: The Math Behind Stealing an election.

March 6 @ 6:00 pm 7:30 pm

You are the politician, but not with majority support! Somehow, you want to win this election. What do you do? Let’s explore.

With majority of voters against you in a state election, can you divide the state and draw district boundaries in a way so that you win the election? What is the minimum number of voters you need to surely win? Where do they live? Does their distribution matter?

In this fun-filled interactive session, we ask many questions and explore the math behind the secrets and the art of GerryMandering.

This is an online Zoom event open to children, parents, teachers and any Math enthusiasts. The joining details will be shared with you as you complete the registration.
