Backers of a proposal to reform Ohio’s troubled political map-making system got the go-ahead Thursday to begin signature-gathering.<\/p>\n

The Ohio Ballot Board<\/a> cleared the way when it agreed unanimously that the constitutional amendment proposed by Citizens Not Politicians constitutes a single subject. The campaign committee now has until July 3 of next year to collect the 413,487 valid signatures required to make the November 2024 ballot.<\/p>\n

The proposal calls for replacing the Ohio Redistricting Commission, which currently comprises three statewide officeholders<\/a> and four state lawmakers, with an independent body selected directly by citizens. The new panel’s members would be diversified by party affiliation and geography.<\/p>\n

The effort follows the existing structure’s repeated failure to produce constitutional maps of congressional and state legislative districts. During the protracted process for re-drawing district boundaries to account for results of the 2020 Census<\/a>, challenges filed in court resulted in two congressional maps and five sets of Statehouse maps being rejected as unconstitutionally gerrymandered.<\/p>\n

Amid the court disputes, Ohio\u2019s 2022 elections were allowed to proceed under the flawed maps.<\/p>\n

Since then, opponents have dropped their litigation against the congressional map, putting it in place for 2024. A new set of Ohio House and Ohio Senate districts was unanimously approved by the Ohio Redistricting Commission last month. That plan remains in limbo, after being challenged Oct. 5 as part of the ongoing lawsuit over Statehouse districts.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
