I drew up this 15 district fair map of Ohio, what do you guys think? Any things that should be worked on?

Illegal in Cleveland, each district must be within 1 county or include a WHOLE county.

Also arguably playing a bit fire with the VRA as a compact 46-47% black district is possible. I think your map is only like 43%.

I moved around the precincts between Lorain/Medina in my district 14 to fix that issue. Is a 40% black and 50% minority district not enough to satisfy the VRA? I would assume my Cleveland district would still elect a black Dem candidate.

@WIresident make a rotation between green/tan/blue to put more of the youngstown area in one area. Also not 100% about that semi donut Cbus district. Also I would personally put Sandusky before Erie with the Toledo district but thats your choice.


I drew up a second Ohio fair map and improved the VRA requirements for the Cleveland district. I also got rid of the donut district in Columbus and had that district pick up Springfield instead. My map ends up with 5 competitive districts; Columbus suburbs, Toledo/Bowling Green, Cleveland suburbs/Lorain, Northeast Ohio, and Akron area.
