GERRY-RIGGED: Drew Griffin explains why votes might not matter

In the last decade, almost 4 out of every 5 seats in Congress remained in the same party’s hands.  The consequence is gridlock with little reason for compromise on either side as long as voters have no realistic say on who stays in office.  CNN investigative correspondent Drew Griffin describes how political parties engage in “gerrymandering,” drawing odd-shaped districts – with voters from one party or the other, essentially designed to retain incumbents.  Redistricting happens once a decade—this is the year.  If the system does not change voters lose.
