Ohio redistricting commission gives up on US House map

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

A new bipartisan commission tasked with redrawing Ohio's political boundaries every decade surrendered its authority to draw congressional districts without even considering a proposal, punting the decision to a state legislature overwhelmingly controlled by Republicans.

The commission, created three years ago with the support of more than 70 percent of Ohio voters, held just one meeting to consider congressional district boundaries. At that meeting, commissioners heard testimony from Ohio voters, one of whom used candy corn to aid his visual presentation.

Commissioners did not bring up or vote on any of their own proposals.

The commission had until Sunday to approve congressional district maps. Its failure to do so means the legislature will now have about a month to craft, consider and approve new U.S. House district lines.

4. It seems obvious their intent

is to hand more seats to t5he GOP. Doesn't sound very nonpartisan to me.
