To add on to the other comments, the two techniques used in gerrymandering are "packing" which sounds similar to what you're describing. Imagine if I have 10 districts and pack all the people who vote one party into one district. I've now ensured that my state will be overwhelmingly represented by the opposite party, The other technique is called "spreading" where I take all the people I would put into that single district, but instead put a few in district 1, a few in district 2, etc, but fewer than the demographics for the opposite party indicate. Not only have I made it so that this group underrepresented in their district, but I've ensured that there has to be overwhelming majority in A BUNCH of districts to get represented at the state and national level. Both are rather insidious and do not provide a fair representation to those voters, especially coupled with the layer of indirection that is the electoral college.
