Pressure For New Map Continues

Attorneys, who gained a federal ruling to throw out Ohio’s congressional map, are asking the U.S. Supreme Court to let procedures move forward to redraw House districts. A three-judge panel in Cincinnati ruled on May 3 the Republican-controlled map unconstitutionally favored Republicans over Democrats…it wants a proposed new map by June 14. Ohio Attorney General, Dave Yost on May 10 asked the Supreme Court to block that order, with two similar cases from other states already awaiting high court rulings.
