Apportioning Votes: Not Just Once a Decade Any More
Scott Pullins mentioned this on Monday.
I also received an e-mail about it that same day, and it’s worth posting as a show-up motivator for voters of both major parties on Tuesday, especially in Southwest Ohio:
Ohio’s Apportionment Board is up for grabs. The Apportionment Board decides where/how district lines are drawn. In addition to 2 R’s & 2 D’s nominated by General Assembly leaders, it consists of the Governor, Auditor and Secretary of State.
….. Since the Supreme Court ruled (in June) that states no longer need to wait for census years (2008) to re-district, I can assure you that the Dems, if in control of that Board, will take a scissors to the state. They will (before 2008) massacre any district involving Clermont, Warren & Butler Counties because we are the concentrated conservative heartbeat of Ohio.
Obviously, I have preferences for Blackwell, Taylor, and Montgomery, respectively. Getting two out of those three is, in my opinion, a must.
