As this isn't something I really want it's going to be hard to get
motivated to work it out.
That said I think the way to go about it is to make unbiased districts
by my current district, then pick one district with the highest
proportion of the desired minority to elevate and adjust all the
districts until that one has a majority of the desired minority.
Repeat one district at a time until there are enough (some states
require two or three I think).
