This November, Ohio voters will have to decide if there will be a change or not to the state's political map-making process. Governor Mike DeWine says he cannot support the ballot initiative that gets rid of the Ohio Redistricting Commission, which is made up of himself and other politicians, and if passed would be replaced by a 15-member citizens' panel. DeWine, Lieutenant Governor Jon Husted, and other opponents of the measure say this issue could encourage gerrymandering. 

Ohioans will have to decide if they want to change who draws the political district maps or not. The statewide ballot item put on by "Citizens Not Politicians" is asking voters to approve the creation of a citizen-led board to draw the boundaries for the Ohio House and Senate and the U.S. congressional districts over the current system of the Ohio Redistricting Commission, which is made up of state-elected officials.
