LaffyCitizens Not Politicians, the group behind a ballot measure to create an independent redistricting commission and end gerrymandering in #Ohio, submits over 700k signatures to the secretary of state for review. Only around 400k signatures were required.
FallsMom 🌻Yes this is great news but as a resident of the GOP oligarchy most corrupt state gov't #Ohio, I'm just waiting for the Secy of State or Atty General to disqualify this somehow.
Tessie for HarrisCitizens are sick of corrupt politicians.
David Penington@GottaLaff I'm not convinced the US is capable of independent redistricting commissions - you have politicised so much & party politicised them more recently.
Elected police chiefs, prosecutors & judges seem insane from here in Australia.
Ohio should contract the redistricting job to the Australian Electoral Commission, who would be truely independent.

Ohio Republicans really screwed the pooch when they went after women's rights...an end to gerrymandering will flush a bunch of Republican do nothings down the toilet.
