What does the asterisk next to Colyer mean?

Trump is staying in office no matter what happens to the House. Deal with it.

Your county jumped from 53% to 58.5% for Balderson in the latest count, so your county is coming through. :)

That was a little while ago ... it’s tightened since then :-) .

[over3Owithabrain]

I want a relatively close win. Keeps our side focused and their side deluded.

[weston]

Another jump.
Go Laz Go
Balderson up to 46%

[Lazamataz]

Ok now that was very nice :)

[stars & stripes forever]

[I guess they count Republican districts last?]

They know the REPUBLICAN won, so they are counting DEMOCRATE votes to keep their ratings up.

With all the radio spots I've been hearing on central Ohio conservative talk radio, I almost want to vote for O'Connor. Not really, obviously, because I'm not stupid. But they sure made him sound like a conservative in the radio spots. They made it sound as if O'Connor was the Trump-aligned republican in the race. I'm sure it fooled some of the low-information voters.
