Ohio Push for Proportional Legislative Maps

Upcoming elections in Ohio, Nevada, and Florida could significantly impact the balance of power in state legislatures and the U.S. Senate. In Ohio, an amendment to the state constitution may affect legislative district maps, currently favoring Republicans who hold supermajorities, limiting Democratic influence. Nevada Democrats are one seat away from a supermajority, potentially undermining Governor Joe Lombardo's veto power, as competitive races heat up. Meanwhile, in Florida, infighting among Democrats threatens their chance to break the GOP's supermajority in the House, with significant funding disparities affecting candidate viability. As for the U.S. Senate, competitive races could lead to a Republican majority if they gain just one more seat, particularly with key contests expected in states where Trump has strong support. Overall, these dynamics across various states illustrate a critical moment in shaping future legislative landscapes.
