Ohio’s Republican leaders want to call a time out in the battle over state legislative maps…at least until after this fall’s general elections…and asked the state’s high court to pause the legal back-and-forth with voting rights and Democratic groups. By a bipartisan 4-3 majority, the Ohio Supreme Court has so far tossed out four sets of legislative maps that were drawn by the Republican-dominated Ohio Redistricting Commission. The judges found those maps to be unfairly gerrymandered. The dispute over redrawing the maps resulted in races for state representative and senator being left off Ohio’s May 3 primary ballot.
