Ohio's congressional districts

Ohio's congressional districts since 2013[1]

Ohio is divided into 16 congressional districts, each represented by a member of the United States House of Representatives. After the 2010 Census, Ohio lost two House seats due to slow population growth compared to the national average,[2] and a new map designed to sway seats for the Republican Party was signed into law on September 26, 2011.[3]
