Should state legislative districts been drawn by independent commissions?

[Slander and/or Libel]

Multi-member districts, 3-5 members each, with a ranked ballot and some rules about how districts are to be drawn. It would mean that more voters would feel represented by somebody elected in their district, and it would decrease the effect of voters of one party being packed into dense cities and voters of another party being more spread out.

But that's essentially to say that it can be the honestly expressed will of the people to distort the people's ability to honestly express their will through their representatives. That's what opponents of gerrymandering have a problem with.
