The maps show a Republican advantage of 61-38 in the Ohio House and a 23-10 advantage in the Ohio Senate.
, the maps show a 23 to 10 Republican advantage, with three Republican toss-up seats and one Democratic toss-up seat.
“To me, it’s not a vote because I think that these maps are fair, or that this process worked the way that it was supposed to,” Russo said. “My vote is simply to take this process out of the hands of this commission.” “We think there will be more competitive races, we hope there will be more competitive races,” said Antonio, who also pushed for further changes to the redistricting process.The Ohio advocate coalitions Equal Districts and Fair Districts issued a joint statement Tuesday night criticizing the maps, calling the agreement, “the latest political power-grab by both the Republican and Democratic members of the commission.
“I’d be delighted to see maps that are equitable,” said Beavercreek resident Daniel Hogg. “Prove me wrong, please. I want you to prove me wrong. Draw fair districts.”
