gerrymandering predetermines elections and is nearly the definition of a rigged election
You ignore a "discouragement factor" when people live in areas where our 2 pages of votes are effectively 'wasted' by #redistricting -- except for those few races like Governor where *total* votes cast matter
Texas GOP removed straight ticket voting during Covid since it hurt them, and my polling place went from half a minute to five minutes per person (times 1000s in line)
