The clustering relation for minority voter populations
The clustering relation for minority voter populations
Let a voter distribution have a minority voter population, let denote its clustering measure, and let denote the expected representation of that minority population, averaged over districting plans. Clustering relation. For minority voter populations, there is a positive correlation between a measure of clustering and their expected representation. The paper motivates this relation through exhaustive computations on grids and proposes its extension to the general case using dual graphs; whether the relation holds in that generality remains open.
