For a better idea that has worked elsewhere and allows voters to "district" themselves, check out the more competitive and representative gerrymander-proof proportional representation electoral systems discussed at FairVote: The Center for Voting and Democracy.

This article inaccurately paints Fair Boundaries as a partisan issue. While it's true that the redistricting process was abused by the current Republican legislative super-majority in 2001, Democrats have done the same when they've had the chance.
