The U.S. Constitution Article 4, Section 4 states:

The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government.

Could that Section be used to limit or eliminate gerrymandering?

@gollum,
The Supreme Court has not interpreted it that way.

With that capital "R" it looks like the Constitution endorses gerrymandering!
