Electoral divisions are predetermined by a districting committee (or in the US, by politicians and you get extremely weird blobs and shapes as a result of gerrymandering). So no, you cannot just have a square foot of land especially since electoral divisions take population into account.
A square foot of land with a poster planted in it seems to fit the definition.

The that/which distinction has never been my strong suit. On the second point, I disagree, but I can tighten the definition further.
If you can remove the clause with which in it, and not change the meaning of the subject, then you can use which. If not, use that.
