The Ohio Supreme Court on Monday rejected new state legislative maps for a second time and ordered them to be redrawn after deeming them unconstitutional.

According to a ruling (pdf), the court sided with the League of Women Voters of Ohio, which had filed an objection to the Ohio House and Senate maps adopted on Jan. 22 by the Ohio Redistricting Commission.
