To divide (a State) into districts for the choice of
representatives, in an unnatural and unfair way, with a view
to give a political party an advantage over its opponent.

Gerry was governor, and was attributed to his
influence, hence the name; though it is now known that
he was opposed to the measure. --Bartlett.
