I”m not for gerrymandering, but I still don’t see the connection to vote-buying.

Vote-buying is vote manipulation...
Vote-manipulation is dishonest...
Gameing the system is voter supression..
Voter supression, supresses the value of some votes...
AND increases the value of other votes...

When votes are supressed other votes are more important..
How important is your vote?.. which votes do you deem less important..?
Which IS the point....

Voter fraud is multi-faceted..
Voteing is predicated on an honest system...

When a ballot box is stuffed.. those votes have been bought..
Not with money but with creative accounting..
Someone was paid to do it.. they were "bought"..

You are still not presenting a rational argument.

Vote-buying is bad, and gerrymandering is bad.

Vote-buying goes on with or without gerrymandering.
Gerrymandering goes on with or without bote-buying.

I still don’t see how they are otherwise linked.
