Bob Young, an Ohio r currently serving, charged with domestic abuse and assault, actually asked by Ohio r party to resign and refused. Ohio Congressional districts found to be unconstitutional by the Ohio Supreme Court have not been redrawn and indeed the current r thugs in the Ohio Legislature seem intent on ignoring the court's rulings. The current gerrymandered districts insures scum like jordan will keep getting elected to represent Ohio in the U.S. House, and scum like vance in the U.S. Senate. Regarding Issue 1, last year, the r's in power stopped special elections in August because they said people didn't vote in them. When they saw that an Ohio constitutional amendment initiative for abortion rights was going to meet current Ohio consitutional criteria to make the ballot in Nov 2023, guess what the mf'ers did? The Ohio r's reversed their decision on the Ausust special elections, so they could push Issue 1, which would change the Ohio Constitutional criteria of what proponents of a constitutional amendment need to get their initiative on the ballot. If Issue 1 passes, it takes effect immediately and all of the hard work that our grassroots citizens did will be voided. And I bet any money that if the r's want to reverse their decision again, they will, and say 'just kidding' I am sick of criminals running the show, from local to state to federal office. Are Americans so complacent about crime they just shrug and vote the way they always have?
Ohio r's can't win unless they lie, cheat, steal and make things up as they go along. You can bet that they will continue their minority rule oppression and keep refining ways to keep a stranglehold on free and fair elections to stay in power.

Can't blame that on gerrymandered maps.
But I am surprised that they are ignoring a court order.
