Vote impact: High
How do we calculate vote impact?

Vote impact = representation (how much weight one vote carries here, the smaller the district's population, the higher the representation) + decisiveness (how likely this race is to be close, based on past results and number of candidates).

Representation: High · 72 out of 100

Smaller districts give each vote more weight, and this district is small for its type. About 10,239 people live here.

score = 100 × ln(largest population ÷ this district's) ÷ ln(largest ÷ smallest), rounded to 2 decimals = 100 × ln(161,192 ÷ 10,239) ÷ ln(161,192 ÷ 3,564) = 72.31, comparing secondary school districts in TN (grades: 66+ high, 33+ average, otherwise low)
