This is the key issue with the US system. People and parties complain about gerrymandering but the party in power only changes the map to profit in the next election instead of establishing a democratic system where every vote counts the same. It's the same issue in Germany with direct mandates, which allow absolute minority parties to be represented in the parliament.
