It should be noted that your results will vary a lot depending on your methodology. I ran a spreadsheet the other day that calculated that Republicans are potentially underrepresented by 2 seats. Studying gerrymandering is just like gerrymandering itself: you can make the results whatever you want. Pretty good argument for just dropping districting and adopting some proportional system within the states (and expanding the House so you don't get too weird in smaller states).
