Analysis: How do you spell "gerrymandering is bad?" With a font made out of preposterous districts. https://t.co/65Df6tzJWu

"In #NH, the two Congressional districts are not gerrymandered, but the executive council, senate and house districts certainly are." @grayno2 https://t.co/Xk2s6beN5W

Gerrymandering undermines our democracy. That’s why I cosponsored the #ForThePeople Act, which would set up nonpartisan, independent redistrict commissions — aimed at stopping people in power from sabotaging your voice. pic.twitter.com/NL7XGYdoEY

3 of Ohio's districts made the cut for a new font Ugly Gerry. District 12 is "B", District 4 is "G" & District 10 is "R". We ???? that folks across the country detest gerrymandering as much as we do. Thanks to the creators for keeping it in the conversation. https://t.co/LQgeLJLTqe

Meet Gerry, the font created using the shapes of gerrymandered Congressional districts. Brilliant. Also, profoundly dispiriting. https://t.co/hIwwSwPTzw pic.twitter.com/7flDW2R5hn

Hey @UglyGerry , here's the Constitution made appropriately illegible by you. https://t.co/pBul5L6R9A

If the exact intersection of your interests is graphic design and a deeply abiding hatred of partisan gerrymandering, then have I got the font for you: pic.twitter.com/w1j6iQvANh

And I just so happen to sit next to Leading Voting Rights Expert @AriBerman.
So, you know it had to happen ???????? pic.twitter.com/qmiLShnnB9
So gerrymandering (one of my favourite words) now has its own font. Can't vouch for whether these are legit US congressional districts but... cool font. https://t.co/EbpkFXqcsr
