On December 16, the United States Election Project revised its turnout data for the November 2014 election. See the data here. Not every state tabulates the number of people who cast a ballot, so the authors created the middle column, based on the number of votes cast for all the candidates for the office that attracted the most votes. The middle column is the best way to compare turnout in all 50 states.

ANTI-Democracy minority rule gerrymanders in ALL States.
–about 30 percent indirect CONTROL.
A bit worse in the top 2 primary States.
1/2 or less votes x 1/2 pack/crack gerrymander districts = 1/4 control.

P.R. and nonpartisan App.V. — before the OLIGARCHS start Civil WAR II.
Folks should send a letter to the gerrymander Congress to enact a law requiring the MORON States to report actual turnouts in Federal elections.
Might actually detect any moron ballot box stuffing – esp. for lower offices and issues on the ballots.
Note – it took the 2002 Federal HAVA law to have the MORON States have a definition of a LEGAL vote — see the Bush v. Gore case in 2000 — TOTAL failure in Florida to have such a definition — esp. in the infamous now dead punch card ballots.
