The first release of data this week from the U.S. Census Bureau on last year’s head count confirmed speculation that Ohio will be losing one seat in the U.S. House of Representatives next year due to reapportionment. While Ohio’s population did grow, it did not keep pace with other parts of the country.
Jen Miller, executive director of the League Of Women Voters of Ohio says the loss of the seat should serve as a reminder for Ohioans about how important mapmaking is when it comes to congressional districts.
“This is a big year for Ohio. In 2018 Ohio voters passed some reforms on the ballot by 75% of voters in all 88 counties, reforms that would improve the way we make congressional maps,” Miller said. “And I think this will be really interesting, how mapmakers navigate the loss of a seat, but also uphold the letter and spirit of those reforms which require more bipartisanship, transparency, and public participation.”
