At this point the primary elections are likely delayed.

Bad news for Mike DeWine.

Gives time for Blystone or Renacci to consolidate support. DeWine is probably going to get under 50% of the primary vote either way, but Renacci and Blystone splitting the anti-DeWine vote means none of them have a shot at the moment. Trump getting involved to try and get one out of the race is also a possibility, as he is reportedly planning to endorse a challenger to DeWine.

Redistricting really does bring out the worst in people. And in this case unlike in NC where the court was making up law (imo), in Ohio, the woman is actually trying to follow the law.

If they decided to go through with this, does the GOP have enough state Senate seats to convict?

They have 25/33 seats in the Senate, so they could lose no more than three votes.
Interesting, so it depends on whether all the Senators tow the party line (if party leaders decide to go along with it).

Next state leg developments.

TBF, they did consistently violate court orders and were acting in bad faith. It would be hilarious if the GOP got it's gerrymander at the cost of the Governor spending time in prison (Though the map can still be overturned and I rlly doubt they'd go to prison)
I think the Republican base would be very happy with DeWine going to prison. It's a win-win situation.
