A Linear Mixed Integer Programming Model of the Size of State Legislatures

In Event: Redistricting and Gerrymandering

Sat, April 9, 11:30am to 1:00pm CDT (11:30am to 1:00pm CDT), TBA

Brief Overview

The sizes of The State Legislatures are derived from a linear programming model of apportionment and district allocation decisions. The results demonstrate convergence to integer house/senate ratios equal to two and three as bicameral solutions.
