Even though a voting precinct may technically cover that area?  I'm wondering if a legislature wanted to connect two areas by uninhabited woods or a highway but didn't want the areas on either side of this area with no people, could they do it?  I know the 2000s version of FL-22 was so thin at some points along the Atlantic that it was connected only by a beach or sandpit without including the liberal condos in front of them.

Could a legislature just draw an inch thick line along the border of a state and then have it jut out to pick up areas that it wanted in that district?
