Cuyahoga County Executive FitzGerald provides his thoughts here ( ProgressOhio [1]) on why voters should Vote Yes on Ohio Issue 2.
California has implemented a citizen's redistricting committee - go to www.wedrawthelines.ca.gov [2] - which committee has helped rationalize California's voting districts.
Ohio needs to get out of the Dark Ages of Party-in-Power Gerrymandering [3]. As Executive FitzGerald points out, Akron is divided in 1/4s! This level of gerrymandering makes Ohio look really dumb.
Vote YES on Issue two.
