Truthout: “Extreme Gerrymandering Has Turned Ohio From a Swing State to a GOP Stronghold”

This is why we do the work that we do, John. Ohio has one Democratic U.S. senator and may be about to elect another, Tim Ryan. And yet, thanks to extreme gerrymandering from GOP Gov. Mike DeWine and his allies, the state looks like it’s as far to the right as Idaho.

Here’s what we’re working on in this election (just 18 days away):

Helping to replace gerrymandering, abortion ban supporting DeWine with pro-choice Democracy Defender Nan Whaley.
Helping to elect a state auditor and dozens of state legislative candidates who will protect fair elections.
Doing similar work in 16 other states.
And fighting to defend the right to vote and important election infrastructure all over the country.

Can you help defend democracy nationwide? Time is running out! ⇨⇨⇨ > [link removed]

The audacity of Ohio Republicans’ gerrymandering in the most recent redistricting cycle makes our heads explode. 🤯🤯🤯 They ignored reforms passed by voters, ignored the directives of courts that struck down their rigged maps, and ran out the clock. Now Ohioans are left with gerrymandered maps, and we’re left with two options:

Option One: We can give up. We can decide it's just not worth it to keep fighting the GOP. Left unchecked, Republicans will use anti-democratic means across the country to secure permanent minority rule.

Option Two: We can be just as relentless as they are. We can decide that the future of our democracy is just too important for us to let a few setbacks stop us. We can continue investing in target races across the country and fight our hearts out in these last 18 days to secure free and fair elections.

You can probably guess which path we’re taking, John. But we need to know: Are you with us? Then pitch in NOW, before it’s too late ⇨⇨⇨ > [link removed]
