How hard is it to divide Ohio into 16 equal parts?

When politics are involved, it's a decennial political brouhaha.

The Ohio Legislature completed the politically charged redistricting process last week, in which politicians draw up the U.S. Congressional and Ohio legislative districts where they'll seek election for the next decade. It's a process that brings about a lot of numbers, confusing terms, political warfare and squiggly lines.

It's complicated, and much of it is classic inside political baseball.
