McEwen and Schmidt are neck and neck.
Schmidt tore up in Clermont County (around 3000), her home county. That is keeping her in this thing.
McEwen won by a nice margin in Warren County (1500 or so), and Brown County (about 600). He and Schmidt are running neck and neck in Hamilton County (McEwen was winning by about 200).
No results from Adams, Scioto, or Pike.
Pat DeWine is in 4th.
Schmidt has opened up a bit of a lead on WLWT, probably Clermont coming in.

Who are we for?
Wow!
I've beenn so freakin' busy working on a city council race up here that I forgto that today was primary election day.
Thank you for the updates!
I think a lot of Freepers were rooting for Brinkman.
They felt he was the only true conservative in the race.
Anybody but deWine. :-)
I don't know if that's true. I was pro-Brinkman and I'm happy with the results.
Thanks for the word.
Has Bush won Ohio yet?
Oh man, there were long lines everywhere!
I couldn't believe it but somehow Diebold put voting machines in Columbus for this race and when I wanted to vote for Brinkman it lit up DeWine! It was awful!
There were election intimidators everywhere!
I wanted to cry!!!!!
sarcasm alert
After what DeWine's daddy did, when he shafted the Republican leadership in cohorts with Rino McCain, I am happy to see him running in 4th place. I wonder what 'daddy' thinks about this now?
I heard that Kerry may sue because people did not get a chance to vote for him on this ballot? (sarcasm)
Dan Rather just called it for Gore.

In all serious, I hope Jean Schmidt does well. She has some critical votes ahead of her.
So what will Dewhine do now?
Ohio Secretary of State Blackwell burned the ballots, erased the memory on the electronic voting machines and had all the boards of elections rounded up and shot right before he declared George Bush President for Life. < /DU paranoia mode>
That last guy isnt an R
That last guy isnt an R
R=RINO (in this case) but look at the bright side - 12%
