“Redistricting in Ohio has been marked by confusion and controversy over the last year,” the organization said in a release.
“Despite Ohioans voting overwhelmingly in 2015 and 2018 to pass Constitutional amendments to establish a process to end gerrymandering, the district maps we will use for the upcoming general election have been ruled unconstitutional by the Ohio Supreme Court.”
