From Middletown Journal:
Republicans are looking to bounce back Tuesday from what they saw as disappointing losses in Ohio statewide contests in 2006.
Four of five statewide offices, including governor, are now held by Democrats.
At stake is control over the powerful apportionment board, which draws the state legislative districts every 10 years after the census and is scheduled to meet next year. The party with the most seats on the board can craft the districts to its own advantage.
The governor, secretary of state and state auditor sit on the board, as does one lawmaker from each party.
