Under legal pressure to address Wisconsin’s “Swiss cheese” and oddly shaped districts, the Legislature approved redrawn maps that promise to create a new dynamic in a state known for its pivotal role in national politics.
They’re not so much gerrymandered as certain parts of WI naturally skew red. It is a pretty purple state. Trump only lost there by 20k votes in the presidential 2020 election. And that had nothing to do with maps.

Every state has uneven distribution. Gerrymandering uses that to give an outsized number of reps to one side and not the other.
