The Fair District’s
Citizens Not Politicians Campaign has begun
This is a a campaign to create a non-partisan districting committee made up of citizens. Currently Ohio is operating within an extremely gerrymandered plan that has been ruled unconstitutional by our Supreme Court. Endorsed by retired Ohio Supreme Court Chief Justice Maureen O’Connor and many good government organizations like Common Cause and the League of Women Voters, Ohioans want to remove the districting from the hands of politicians and allow citizens to make these important decisions.
Sign up below to attend their next volunteer huddle and or for training for collecting signatures. Petitions will be available at the WCC or LWV offices.
