COLUMBUS, Ohio - Most Ohio voters say the economy is the top issue in this year's election, but they're evenly split when it comes to whether President Barack Obama or Mitt Romney would better handle the economy.

About half of Ohioans say at least some of the 2010 health care law should be repealed, while just over four in 10 think it should be expanded or left as is.

Interesting they don’t give the numbers for the “split” on the economy...was it 50-50 or 52-48 Romney?

Since they know most economy voters are going to be Romney voters, the reporters have to find a way to spin it to make it appear that they are Obama ones.

After speaking to some coworkers voting for Obama you would be surprised and dismayed how stupid they are.

“4 years of abject failure and they still don’t know anything”

Why I don’t have any faith in turning this nation around. The electorate is so dumbed down that Obama will probably win another term.

I agree and even if Romney wins, the media and schools etc are going to keep dumbing people down

Northern Ohio is pure crony capitalism (GM bailout) and unions. Democrat.

Central Ohio is university, government and gay. Democrat.

Southern Ohio is tilted towards Republican.

Stupidity and cronyism win in Ohio.

“Stupidity and cronyism win in Ohio.”

Some pretty broad generalizations there.

Mark my words, Obama will be crushed in the final counts in Ohio! Columbus counts tend to get first billing in the analysis...

Obama’s EPA has decimated the energy industries in Southern Ohio, and people in NE Ohio, (Cuyahoga Co, where I am), are keenly aware of this. He’s lost a lot of support across the state.

Bye bye Obama!
