Some argue that less politically homogeneous districts might result in divisive elections. Do you believe this might be a problem? Why or Why not?

I do not believe that this would be a problem.  We might
get more divisive elections, but our Congress would be less divided and more able to
work together.

Our politically homogeneous districts lead
to very extreme candidates getting elected (even if the elections are pretty calm).  If
your district is all Republican, the most extreme Republican is likely to win.  If the
district has lots of Democrats and Independents, a moderate will be more likely to
win.

If you have moderates winning (even if the elections
are contentious) they will be more able to cooperate with other moderates from both
parties.  This would lead to a better Congress that could actually govern from the
center instead of fighting between polar opposites.

So the
elections might be tougher and nastier, but the people elected would be more likely to
work together well and we'd all be better off.
