Voters in Ohio will vote Tuesday on a constitutional amendment that critics say will make significant and damaging changes to the way districts in the state are drawn.
DAYTON, OH - A competitive Senate race in Ohio has resulted in voters being flooded with ads about national issues, but a lesser known state ballot measure to amend the state constitution could, according to its critics, fundamentally change the makeup of elections for the worse for years to come. On Tuesday, Ohio voters will vote 'yes' or 'no' on a measure 'to create an appointed redistricting commission not elected by or subject to removal by the voters of the state.
Citizens Not Politicians argues the existing system has failed. The group is calling for replacing the current regime with an independent body made up of average citizens.

The 15-member Ohio Citizens Redistricting Commission would include Republicans, Democrats and independents and represent a mix of the state’s geographic and demographic traits.
