Isn't SCOTUS coming up on a decision about gerrymandering, perhaps in another state? I keep hearing it mentioned.

In the meantime, having lived in Ohio almost all my life, I can testify that one of the biggest "sins" that Ohio voters commit is voting for the incumbent, thinking that he/she is the "safe" choice. "After all, Ohio hasn't blown up yet..." 🙄 It's lazy and the tendency to recoil from change, while a conservative principle, remains in the voting population, at least in rural and suburban areas.

While "change" in the Ohio Statehouse is a fraudulent activity. They don't want us to go backward...they want to line their own pockets at our expense and protect themselves from Larry Householder's dilemma. If they own all the organs of the democratic process, job done.

No, it's just "death by a thousand cuts" and the deviousness and planning of this cabal are astonishing and outrageous. Ohio IS a laboratory for the rest of the country on this thing. We must fight it tooth and nail.

@BlueOhio @Indivisible Read,,Listen, and Share. We need hope for the future! Get it back! Think about Local Elections to undo illegal gerrymandering. Important for everyone to work on local elections in your state.; especially OH and TX. Everybody help!

I am voting for Bryan Handly for Secretary of State. He is running on this issue and feels very strongly that the Ohio Constitution should be followed. He is a well respected children's cancer physician. In addition, because all voters have the right to do so, I am voting a paper ballot.

Texas is distracting democrats out to dilute the democratic vote. My district is one of them sponsored by judge Tim O’hare.

Why don't you ever propose the only way to destroy gerrymandering forever, any system of Proportional Representation?
