The map that cut short Moon Duchin's visit to @BridgeStateU last week. Geometry looks pretty good to me. #gerrymandr https://twitter.com/jjabbott/status/965673700111548416
Stochastic simulation can explore *billions* of redistricting plans & show how deviant the status quo is. (WI’s actual plan won more R seats than 99%+ of alternatives.) -M. Duchin #gerrymandr
🎉 Tomorrow! 🎉
Moon Duchin's #gerrymandr crew started as small @TuftsUniversity group, now is national team of experts consulting on most impt legal cases on partisan redistricting. She'll tell it better than me tomorrow, 12:30, DMF 120. @BridgeStateU @BSUExternalAff #BSULife
🎉 Next Thursday! 🎉
Moon Duchin, mathematician just tapped by @GovernorTomWolf to help solve Pennsylvania's #gerrymandr problem, tells us at @BridgeStateU why it's so challenging. And important! All welcome 2/15, 12:30, DMF 120. @BSUExternalAff #BSUlife
Help us, Obi-Wan Duchin, you’re our only hope! #mathematiciansDoStuff #gerrymandr https://twitter.com/mattmfm/status/958802435304140800
.@GovernorTomWolf couldn’t have chosen better. Congratulations Moon! #gerrymandr twitter.com/stevenstrogatz/status/95...

Public scholarship is always political. Even (especially!) when it's mathy. #gerrymandr time.com/4965673/wisconsin-suprem...

Apportionment of House seats: a high-stakes exercise in rounding that became "peace through equal confusion." -M. Duchin #gerrymandr
ICYMI: @TuftsUniversity is hosting wkshps this month of mathematicians & math educators learning to engage public dialog on #gerrymandr 👈#
Math can supply several possible answers to political problems. Q is, is there will enough to use even one? #gerrymandr twitter.com/wiredculture/status/8961...
