Democrats v Magats

I keep hearing about how gerrymandering isn't so bad for Democrats this year and I still don't believe it. Case in point:

Ohio had a very gerrymandered map rejected by the Ohio SC.
New York had a gerrymandered map rejected by the NY SC.

Ohio basically submitted the same map again.
New York is having a non partisan revision done.

The difference in just these 2 examples; a gain of 4 seats by the Magats.

Democrats have a long row to hoe to overcome the gerrymandering.
