redistricting reform

Sen. Bill Blessing (R-Colerain Twp.) is proposing an amendment that would increase the size of the General Assembly as a way to deal with frustration over redistricting.

Elected Ohio Republicans were some of the biggest opponents of the proposal, but some have said they’d back different changes to the political mapmaking process.

It's a war over one word — “gerrymander” — and rarely have so many dictionaries been called into action during an Ohio ballot campaign.

A few days after the backers of the Issue 1 redistricting amendment on Ohio's November ballot launched their ad campaign, the issue’s opponents have done the same.

The Ohio Ballot Board made final changes to the wording after the court ruled on previous summary language earlier this week.

Some Black former lawmakers from Ohio have split from most of their Democratic colleagues and are opposing Issue 1, the redistricting proposal on the fall ballot.

The group Citizens Not Politicians filed their lawsuit with the Ohio Supreme Court after the Ballot Board's approval of wording that voters will see this fall.

The Ohio Secretary of State's office says the group backing the effort collected enough valid signatures to put the constitutional amendment before voters in November.
