Ohio is unlikely to meet its constitutional deadlines for redistricting, so a top legislative leader wants to change the rules, again. Senate President Matt Huffman, R-Lima, is proposing letting state lawmakers replace the deadlines set by voters in the Ohio Constitution when the U.S. Census Bureau fails to meet its deadlines. Ohio has a Sept. 30 constitutional deadline for drawing its state House and Senate and congressional districts. Ohio redistricting amendments, which voters approved in 2015 and 2018, didn't include a contingency plan for delayed census data. So Huffman wants to fix it with another constitutional amendment. Voters would have to approve it in an August election.
