Have you looked at Bachmann’s district on a map? It’s got a, shall we say…interesting shape to it. Many have gone so far as to describe her district boundaries as Gerrymandered.

In this specific example, it’s not the voters that are to blame; it is the people who controlled the redistricting process in Minnesota.
