Federal judges in Ohio have thrown out the state’s Republican-drawn congressional map. It's the latest lower court to rule that partisan gerrymandering is unconstitutional while awaiting a SCOTUS ruling on the issue

Federal judges in Ohio have thrown out the state’s Republican-drawn congressional map — the latest lower court to rule that partisan gerrymandering is unconstitutional while awaiting a Supreme Court ruling on the issue.

In Ohio, the district court judges ruled that Ohio’s state Legislature must redraw the congressional map by June 14. But it’s likely Republicans will ask the Supreme Court to set aside the ruling. Regardless of the outcome of this case, the next round of redistricting in Ohio after the 2020 census will be conducted under reforms passed by voters in a ballot measure last year.

Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati have controlled elections here long enough and the reason Ohio has voted blue for over a decade

Is there a chart outlining those States that are being challenged for Gerrymandering and the status by court intervention? Is Maryland next?

Once you create a majority-minority district (an African American district), then you have no choice but to draw districts that favor the GOP in other areas.

Corruption in the lower courts is as insidious as any Deep State infiltration.

Hope they can do in Wisconsin as well.

Bye bye Gym Jordan!

Jim Jordan what will you do?

yay!

The CORRUPT GOP FUCKKKING WITH DEMOCRACY. Constitutionalists,, MY AZZZZZZZZ

*yawn* then the dems draw a gerrymandered map that is thrown out then the republicans draw...

“Temporary Setback” ... Supremes will almost certainly thumbs up GOP efforts. I am surprised they haven’t completely invalidated original gerrymandering decision. Senators should start asking SCOTUS noms that along w Board of Ed, Dred Scott, etc. I mean seems appropriate Y/N?

That guys a democrat always was. RINO

America needs healing and humanity.

Gerrymandering is disgusting, anti-American, and evil. If you have to cheat to win, maybe ask yourself why.

4 bodies found at Ohio apartment complex after frantic 911 call, police suspect foul playIn a 911 call from a West Chester Township apartment complex, a distraught man can be heard shouting 'Help, please help!' Such a horribly written article... This is bad I hope the culprit get caught soon Unless there is an epidemic of a rapidly fatal bleeding disease, 1 bleeding body should arouse suspicion in the police. It shouldn’t take 4 such bodies to make the ‘police suspect foul play’.

Federal judges declare Ohio congressional map unconstitutionalThe decision, similar to rulings in other states, comes as the Supreme Court considers whether courts even have a role to play in gerrymandering cases. Good to finally see someone doing something about partisan Republican gerrymandering. No more cheating! The ruling party of any state should not have full control over the district maps. This has led to gerrymandering in many states. Nothing good comes from gerrymandering. Thank God!
