It's Time to End Gerrymandering in Ohio
Right now in Ohio, politicians and lobbyists manipulate districts with questionable voting maps to protect their interests and guarantee their reelection. As a result, incumbents running for reelection almost never lose. In other words, we let politicians choose their voters.
"The Anti-Gerrymandering Amendment bans lobbyists and politicians from the process of voting map creation and instead empowers voters to choose their politicians," said Lorain County Lead Lili Sandler. "Join us today to restore power to where it belongs -- with citizens, not politicians."
We are going to need a volunteer army to get this initiative on the ballot and win in November 2024!
