Well, ideally everyone is proportionally represented at every level of government. So you'd want a 5/4 split at the top level, where each person has a representative that they like.
You'd almost want gerrymandering, but of a different sort. Traditional gerrymandering makes some districts win by 100/0 and the rest lose 49/51 to marginalize as many people as possible.
But perhaps more fair would be perfect gerrymandering - every district ends up with a 100/0 split. This means you get 5/4 at the top level, while every citizen is represented by someone they voted for.
Yeah, those 100/0 districts are not going to be "in play", as the saying is - they're not going to be a competitive race, ever. That means that all the action will be in the primary. (Of course, with a 100/0 district, maybe that's appropriate...)

Districts end up as more of an overlapping blur.
