OH REDISTRICTING MOVES

THE OHIO LEGISLATURE HAS ROUGHLY 90 DAYS TO REDRAW AND PASS A NEW CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT MAP AND SEND IT TO THE GOVERNOR. 
REDISTRICTING IS A HOT TOPIC NATIONALLY RIGHT NOW. OHIO IS THE ONLY STATE THAT IS MANDATED TO DO IT. THE PROCESS INVOLVES ALTERING THE BOUNDARIES OF EXISTING CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICTS. REPUBLICANS CONTROL BOTH THE HOUSE AND SENATE AND THE OHIO SUPREME COURT WHICH THE CINCINNATI ENQUIRER SAYS GIVES THEM AN ADVANTAGE IN CREATING AND PASSING A NEW DISTRICT MAP THAT FAVORS THEIR PARTY. RIGHT NOW, OHIO REPUBLICANS HAVE 10 SEATS IN CONGRESS. THEY HOPE TO INCREASE THAT BY UNSEATING DEMOCRATS MARCY KAPTUR OF TOLEDO AND EMILIA SYKES OF AKRON.
