.RepBobGibbs announced his retirement Wednesday, citing the state’s redistricting process as the reason for his decision.
In a statement, Gibbs, who first represented Ohio’s 18th Congressional District and later its 7th District, pointed to “the circus redistricting has become in Ohio” as cause for his decision to leave Congress.
“It is irresponsible to effectively confirm the congressional map for this election cycle seven days before voting begins, especially in the Seventh Congressional District where almost 90 percent of the electorate is new and nearly two thirds is an area primarily from another district, foreign to any expectations or connection to the current Seventh District," Gibbs said. Since 2011, I’ve had the honor of serving the people of Ohio’s 18th, then 7th District.
