Well, actually, I think bipartisan incumbent protection is the worst of them all. But there's no chance that would happen if Ohio were redistricted under even Husted's proposal. Ohio would look radically different if the Republican gerrymander was eliminated. I'm glad virtually all of the split governments in the country let redistricting go to the courts instead of bipartisan protection.

Yes ... that's why it's good the proposal includes a minimal safeguard against it, with no two districts splitting more than one county between them.

I don't understand why this wouldn't be winning by a huge margin.

Because the Ohio SOS is a bitter partisan hack and screwed with the ballot language.
