TimmOhio Republican and Democratic lawmakers unanimously approved a new congressional map that would give a slight, but not overwhelming, boost to the GOP ahead of next year’s midterm elections.At a meeting Friday morning, members of the state’s bipartisan redistricting commission approved the proposed map, which was released on Thursday as part of an unexpected deal. The map shifted two Democratic-held districts to the right and one to the left while also maintaining 10 districts that favor Republicans and two that are Democratic strongholds. Punchbowl News was first to report details of the deal.Suzan DelBene, the chair of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, said “this is not a fair map for Ohio voters,” but praised Democratic legislators for “negotiating to prevent an even more egregious gerrymander.”“This compromise keeps us on the path to taking back the House Majority and we’ll continue to win across Ohio because voters know it’s House Democrats who are fighting for them,” DelBene said in a statement. The new map came as a surprise to many observers. Democrats largely expected the constitutionally mandated redistricting commission to reach a stalemate, as it did in 2021. If the commission failed to settle on a new map ahead of the 2026 elections, responsibility for setting congressional boundaries would have fallen back to the Republican-controlled Legislature, which could have drawn an aggressively gerrymandered map. If that happened, Democrats had threatened to pursue a statewide referendum that could have resulted in voters blocking the map from going into effect.The map won’t be subject to a referendum, while Democrats avoided the worst-case scenario map. In negotiations, a source familiar with the negotiations said, Republicans showed Democrats a map that had the GOP controlling 13 of the state’s 15 districts. A voter referendum on such a map would have required Democrats to gather nearly 250,000 signatures in just 90 days, a difficult feat under any scenario, let alone during the holidays and Ohio’s winter months. Lawmakers on the redistricting commission faced some protests at Friday’s meeting. “Shame, shame on you all,” said members of the public who attended the meeting to offer comment. “You sold us out!”Ohio is represented in Congress by 10 Republicans and five Democrats. Democratic Reps. Greg Landsman and Marcy Kaptur would face more competitive districts under the new map, while Rep. Emilia Sykes’ district would become slightly more Democratic.After the bipartisan commission approved the map Friday, Kaptur and Sykes said they would run for re-election under the news district lines.”Let the Columbus politicians make their self-serving maps and play musical chairs, I will fight on for the people and ask the voters for their support next year,” Kaptur said in a post on X.Under the current lines, the Cook Political Report with Amy Walter rated Kaptur’s and Sykes’ seats as “toss ups” and Landman’s as “likely Democratic.”The emergence of Ohio’s new map proposal comes amid an unusually aggressive mid-decade redistricting cycle, kicked off by President Donald Trump, who has asked Republican-led states to draw new maps in an effort to shore up the party’s narrow U.S. House majority. Texas, Missouri and North Carolina have all drawn maps boosting Republicans, while California Democrats are asking voters to approve new district lines next week. Virginia Democrats took the first major step this week towards modifying their redistricting commission to allow them to redraw their state’s map next year, while Indiana GOP lawmakers are expected to soon consider a redistricting effort. Other states, including Louisiana, await a Supreme Court ruling they hope could open the door to redrawing their congressional maps next year, too.Jane C. TimmJane C.

Oct. 6, 2025, 1:11 PM EDTBy Rebecca CohenThe life of a showgirl is, and always will be, for Taylor Swift. Days after her latest album release, Swift addressed what she called an “offensive” fan rumor that implied she would be done recording and releasing new music after her impending nuptials to Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. The pair’s August engagement announcement followed closely behind Swift’s reveal on Kelce’s “New Heights” podcast that her twelfth studio album, “The Life of a Showgirl,” would be released on Oct. 3. As part of the album’s promotion, Swift spoke with BBC Radio 2 host Scott Mills in an interview that aired on Monday, during which Mills asked her about the rumors. “Taylor, don’t tell me this is your last album,” Mills asked.The “Opalite” singer immediately looked confused, shaking her head. He clarified that he has seen fans discussing the possibility of the end of Swift’s music career, citing her upcoming marriage and a future that could include her having children. “That’s a shockingly offensive thing to say,” Swift responded. “That’s not why people get married, so that they can quit their job.” Mills clarified that he thinks “the fans were just panicking,” implying that the rumors actually came from a good place, and that her beloved Swifties were just fearful this would be the end of the music they know and love. “They love to panic sometimes,” Swift admitted. But slowing down after marriage is not in Swift’s cards, namely because she said her fiancé supports her in her career.”I love the person that I am with because he loves what I do and he loves how much I am fulfilled by making art and making music,” Swift said of Kelce. She added that one of the “coolest” things about him is that he, too, is “so passionate about what he does that me being passionate about what I do — it connects us.” “There’s no point in time where he’s going to be like, ‘I’m really upset that you’re still making music. The music thing that I signed up for, that I knew you love, I thought you were gonna stop doing that,'” Swift continued.She said that it’s the “most fun thing in the world” that she and Kelce can support each other in each of their larger-than-life careers, and noted the differences and similarities of what they do. “We both, as a living, as a job, as a passion, perform for three-and-a-half hours in NFL stadiums … to entertain people,” Swift said. “When I’m in those stadiums, it’s a dressing room. But when he’s in those exact same stadiums, it’s a locker room. For him, it’s practice. For me, it’s rehearsal. For him, it’s a game. For me, it’s a show,” Swift said. Even though they “call them different things,” both stars are surrounded by teams, making their careers “a very similar thing,” Swift said. She added that they’re both competitive “in fun ways, not in ways that eat away at us, but just like, we just love it.” Swift will continue her media tour for “Showgirl,” which has already broken records, on Monday night with an appearance on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.” Later this week, she will also join “Late Night with Seth Meyers.” Fans have speculated she’ll keep the NBC appearances alive with a surprise spot on “Saturday Night Live” when Sabrina Carpenter — who is featured on the album’s title track and is a good friend of Swift’s — performs double duty on Oct. 18.
