Description

from the session report:A game about creating election districts which are designed to favor one party or another. What a party generally wants to do is to create districts in which it has a slight majority of voters in a lot of districts, and an overwhelming minority in a few. This way, it is possible to win an election with a minority of the popular vote, much in the same way that it is possible for a presidential candidate to win with a majority of electoral votes, but a minority of popular votes.The game board starts out with a hex map in which each hex represents a precinct which is randomly 'dedicated' to one of the four parties. Players use a somewhat DdW method to start and expand the size of districts until it contains 7 precincts, at which time the district is 'defined' and one player scores. - BoardGameGeek
