This repository contains an AMPL model for optimizing a state's legislative districts for compactness, contiguity, integrity, population, and competitiveness. Most importantly, it also considers political proportionality in an effort to generate fair districts that combat gerrymandering. It also includes data for testing this model on the state of Ohio which has had historically gerrymandered districts. Finally, it contains code for generating some of this data and for generating colored state maps from the model's output.
