Yes

Self-determination ideology emphasizes the importance of people having control over their own lives and political decisions. An independent, non-partisan commission would help ensure that the redrawing of Congressional districts is fair and unbiased, allowing for more accurate representation of the people's will. However, the score is not a full 5 because self-determination does not inherently require an independent commission.

No, gerrymandering allows officials to more effectively represent the interests of their constituency

This answer strongly contradicts self-determination ideology because it supports gerrymandering as a means to more effectively represent the interests of a constituency.
