Ohio Congressional Map

Like several other states across the country, Ohio approved new congressional districts in 2025. But the state took a more balanced approach to these new lines.

Ohio was required to draw a new congressional map, and how it got approved was a surprise to many.

Many Democrats are upset with their legislative leaders after they went along with majority Republicans on a new Ohio congressional map.

The state will now avoid a lengthier fight over a mandated redraw of boundaries for the 15 members of Congress from Ohio.

The map the commission released tilts districts in Cincinnati and Toledo further right and Akron further left.

The Ohio Redistricting Commission has until the end of the day Friday to come up with such an agreement.

If a bipartisan congressional map isn’t adopted by the Ohio Redistricting Commission by Friday, state lawmakers could adopt a map without a single Democratic vote.

Ohio elected officials are now less than 10 days away from blowing a second deadline to pass a bipartisan Congressional map.

Ohio Democrats unveiled a map in September that was quickly rejected by the Republican supermajority, but the GOP has not yet publicly unveiled a map it will support.

Ohio Democrats produced a map in early September that would result in an 8R-7D split, which was dismissed by Republicans as "gerrymandered".
