washington is a living example of democratic gerrymandering in action. the state's most likely majority red, but you see that side getting zero representation due to creative districting giving as much weight as absolutely possible to seattle and olympia. it's hit the point where most of the red side of the state doesn't even bother turning out to vote since this has been going on for decades, which has inadvertently started making it look like the state's really majority blue. there is no reason washington is not a swing state.
