Ohio Democrats, Republicans Squabble as Redistricting Begins

Members of the committee overseeing congressional redistricting were also announced

The battle to draw Ohio's new political boundaries started with a squabble Wednesday afternoon over the congressional district map that the minority Democrats proposed during a Tuesday morning news conference.

Meanwhile, Democrats accuse Republicans of failing to advance what they call their fair, constitutional map.
