Great news. I’d feel better if I could believe it. I won’t be content until Romney gets sworn in

[CPT Clay]

Not unless Freeper LS confirms!

How many times are you going to post this?

[ohioman]

You are right. This is basically a battle of mostly conservative SW Ohio vs. the liberal scum around Cleveland.

Columbus is a mix by itself.

Would’nt you vote from Cuyahoga County if you were in danger of losing food stamps, Obama phone, rent subsidy, heat subsidy, legal assistance, free translator for medical visit, assistance to dependent children, welfare assistance, unlimited health care via Medicaid.....blah blah blah...?

[The Conservative Goddess]

I’m cautiously optimistic, but still several hours left. I’ve been praying all day!

[snarkytart]

Whew i’m on edge.

[entropy12]

hehehe...good observation!

I knocked on doors with a group of volunteers on Saturday and Sunday in Manassas, Virginia. Republican voters are really, really pumped. I expect that Virginia will be called pretty early for Romney.

I grew up in Geauga County. Those people have always been serious conservatives and that hasn't changed despite some adulteration by liberals fleeing Cuyahoga's eastside.

Well, this news is good, but I feel more nervous than ever. I feel like a kid the night before Christmas.

[therightliveswithus]

Outstanding!

It better be a blowout, or believe me, the Lawsuits and Recounts in OH will start immediately, and linger for weeks......

[oust the louse]

LOL!

[hinckley buzzard]

A heavy turnout in Cuyahoga is absolutely essential to democrats, but it is not enough by itself. With all the other reports of turnout trends across the state, I'm not worried by this. For one thing, CC has a couple hundred thousand fewer voters than in 2008, so the bar is higher than ever.

[LibLieSlayer]

The turnout in Cincy is down according to Cunningham... that is just as important!

Wonder if the Amish are turning out...

The "values voters" groups were aggressively targeting Amish communities in Holmes and Wayne Counties. When the Amish vote, they vote Republican by 3:1 margins.

[Jeff Head]

If true and accurate...and if it holds, this is HUGE NEWS!

It is in line with a lot of the other data we have heard about, but that pundits have pooh-poohed because of their Obama leaning, lopsided poll models.

If this holds, they will call Ohio before 10PM and it may well be completely over by that time. We shall see!

Keep PRAYING FOR AMERICA

Yes, forgot to mention that. It is very important.

[FateAmenableToChange]

I know some people from Geauga. Die hard libs and leftists, every one. At least half of them are voting Romney this year. The other half are literally senile or avowed communists.
