Better Elections, Through Math

What makes a democracy work?
An elected class that represents, as closely as possible, the will of the electorate. Fair District maps are created by an algorithm using only 2010 U.S. Census data, producing politically-blind districts that keep communities together, empowering everyone.
Better elections, through math!
