93. STATE REPRESENTATIVE DISTRICTS

Each of the eighty-eight counties of the State that has a sufficient population to entitle it to one or more representatives constitutes a single representative district. The apportionment in 1901, however, showed that certain counties were without the requisite population, and these were, therefore, combined, as follows: Lake and Geauga, Carroll and Harrison, Noble and Morgan, Hocking and Vinton, Ashland and Holmes, Morrow and Delaware, Madison and Fayette, and Pike and Adams. Under the constitutional amendment adopted in 1903, providing for single representative districts in all cases, these "combined

95. COMMON PLEAS JUDICIAL DISTRICTS

[Const. of Ohio, 1851, Art. IV., Sec. 3; Art. IV., Sec. 15; Art. XI., Sec. 12; Bates, Statutes, 1902, Sec. 481-1; Ohio Laws, v. 97, pp. 41, 108.]

The counties of the State are grouped into ten common pleas judicial districts. Each district that comprises three or more counties is divided into three judicial subdivisions. The voters of each subdivision elect one or more common pleas judges, and those of Hamilton county (which constitutes an entire district by itself) elect three judges. The districts and subdivisions are as follows:
