Ohio Gop Back To Drawing Board As New Maps Rejected By Supreme Court As Gerrymandered

The court decided in a 4-3 vote to reject the map as justices said Republican lawmakers gerrymandered the map. The new districts would have given GOP candidates a 12-3 advantage over the Democrats in the House of Representatives elections, The New York Times reported. “When the dealer stacks the deck in advance, the house usually wins,” Justice Michael Dolley wrote for the majority in the court’s decision. In a 2018 Ohio Constitution amendment, people drawing the electoral district maps are not allowed to redraw the state’s districts in a way that would favor one political party over another, also known as gerrymandering....
