Signature gatherers needed for redistricting reform
YOU, yes you will be needed to help get a redistricting reform amendment on the ballot! The amendment would create a 15-member commission of Republicans, Democrats, and independents to draw Ohio’s congressional and legislative maps, instead of current or former politicians who are inherently more interested in retaining power than in designing fair maps.
The League will be working alongside Citizens Not Politicians, the sponsor of the proposed amendment, to gather the over 450,000 signatures needed to include the initiative throughout the winter and early spring. If you are interested in helping with this effort, contact the League at league@lwvdayton.org for more information.
