    Content: Elbridge Gerry war ein Gouverneur von Massachusetts, der 1812 die Grenzen seines Wahlkreises zu seine Gunsten so hemmungslos willkürlich neu zuschneiden ließ, dass dabei die exotische Form eines Salamanders herauskam. Seitdem nennt man dieses Verfahren in der Politikwissenschaft "Gerrymandering" - bis heute in den USA eine von den beiden großen Lagern geübte Praxis. Der Film will seinen Zuschauern die Augen dafür öffnen, wie das Mehrheitswahlrecht schon vor der eigentlichen Wahl im Verborgenen manipuliert werden kann. (ZLB)
    Content: Right now, across the country, our two major political parties are gearing up for a once-a-decade war whose winner will control Congress for the next ten years, and possibly more. There will be battles in every state, and each will be kept carefully hidden from the prying eyes of average voters who only become more disenchanted with their government with each meaningless election. Democrats and Republicans collude to keep these skirmishes private so that they can maintain total control over the ultimate political weapon: the ability to directly determine the outcome of elections. Why bother stuffing ballots when they can just draw districts? For the first time, Gerrymandering exposes the most effective form of manipulating elections short of outright fraud. After the 2010 Census is finished, will you know where your district went? (Covertext)
