New Map Does Not Wash With Some

A lawsuit, filed Thursday, challenges Ohio’s newly drawn state legislative districts…as giving an extreme and unfair advantage to the Republican Party, which controls the state’s new redistricting commission. The American Civil Liberties Union, its Ohio arm and a law firm filed the litigation on behalf of the League of Women Voters of Ohio. The groups say the suit is the first such legal action in the nation against district maps redrawn using results of the 2020 census.
