CONGRESSIONAL REDISTRICTING--U.S. Rep. Sherrod Brown, D-OH, left confers with Sen. Rober Hagan, D-Youngstown, during session, at the Ohio Statehouse, in Columbus, Ohio, on Wednesday, Jan. 16, 2001. Congressman Brown's district will be preserved by the Republican redistricting plan unveiled at the Statehouse today leaving Sen. Hagan's brother Tim Hagan as the lone challenger to Gov. Bob Taft in the 2002 election. Taft pushed for Brown's district to remain so that the popular Brown would not challenge him in the gubenatorial race. (Photoj.com/Jack Kustron)
