Even though they do not serve on the Ohio Redistricting Commission, legislators need to stand up for voters like us. Please join me in calling and emailing them at [insert contact information] to demand fair state legislative maps and that the legislature establish a time for the primary for these races.\r\n\r\n2: I have grown tired watching the members of the Ohio Redistricting Commission flout the law. It is baffling to me that those in power frequently preach about law and order and yet they refuse to follow the new redistricting rules we voters added to the Ohio Constitution to end gerrymandering. We must continue to insist that they are held accountable for drawing unconstitutional maps and when the Ohio Supreme Court sends them back to work that they follow the law and draw fair maps!\r\n\r\n3: When Ohioans voted for redistricting reforms, we rejected gerrymandering and drawing voting districts in secret \"bunkers.\" But that\u2019s exactly what happened again with the state legislative maps. The independent mapmakers hired with our tax dollars were stalled and delayed until the 11th hour when GOP mapmakers switched in \u201cnew\u201d maps that were almost identical to ones already ruled unconstitutional by the Ohio Supreme Court. The Ohio Redistricting Commission was contemptuous of voters and the Ohio Constitution. They have created a terrible mess that can only be resolved when we have constitutionally compliant, fair voting maps.\r\n\r\n<strong>Also send your letter to the editor to:<\/strong>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><strong>Co-Chair Speaker Bob Cupp,\u00a0<\/strong>614-446-9624,\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:rep04@ohiohouse.gov\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rep04@ohiohouse.gov<\/a><\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Senate President Matt Huffman,\u00a0<\/strong>614-466-7584,\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:huffman@ohiosenate.gov\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">huffman@ohiosenate.gov<\/a><\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Governor DeWine,\u00a0<\/strong>614-644-4357, 614-466-3555,\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:Laurel.Dawson@governor.ohio.gov\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Laurel.Dawson@governor.ohio.gov<\/a><\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Secretary of State LaRose,\u00a0<\/strong>614-466-2585,\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:FLaRose@ohiosos.gov\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">FLaRose@ohiosos.gov<\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<strong>Having two primaries is confusing.
