OVER IN OHIO? Clinton Campaign Pulling Plug On Battleground State?
American Mirror ^ | 09/25/16 | Kyle Olson

Is Hillary Clinton’s campaign pulling the plug on its hopes to win the batlleground state of battleground states: Ohio?

That’s what CNN’s Jeff Zeleny wondered this morning as he noted Clinton has not been in the state since her epic Cleveland coughing fit on Labor Day.

“So long Ohio? It’s been 20 days Hillary Clinton has stepped foot into this class battleground state, and she’s not expected to visit it again in the month of September,” Zeleny said.

But it’s not because the campaign believes she has it sewn up, but rather the opposite.

“That is a nod to the political reality there facing her campaign,” Zeleny said.

“She is struggling mightily among white voters, and the campaign has not yet written it off. And they will push back and say ‘we’re still spending money there,’ etc., but Ohio, the mother of all battleground states is not in her wheel house anymore.

“Our poll of polls — combination of polls — shows that Trump is leading 43% to 38%,” Zeleny said.

He added she “does not need” Ohio and that is why it is “slipping down on the priority list.”

She has to stay away from that nasty allergy inducing state. The pollen must be bad in Ohio.

No scheduled events in Ohio but she will campaign in New Hampshire on Wednesday. When she schedules events in Maine you can start booking your tickets for the Trump inauguration.

Still doesn’t make sense. Five points is hardly an insurmountable gap.

The wheels must be falling off in a lot of other places too.

And all this without Kasich. If he’d throw in for Trump, we’d gain another 37 votes!

I was in northern Ohio yesterday. Not one Hillary sign. Seen a few Trump signs. Here in Michigan I see Trump signs, but no Hillary, not even one.

I live in southern Ohio. I’ve driven regularly throughout the entire southwest quadrant of the state. In that entire area, my random driving has seen hundreds of Trump signs and just one clinton sign. Just one and that was in a yuppie portion of Hamilton county, and there were Trump signs even there. The only way she wins south ohio is by fraud.

No way ... I have heard from an impeccable medical authority that Granny is in perfect health!

I'm finding it hard to believe that Clinton would give up on a state as critical as Ohio that easily. (Cue the "It's a trap!" photo.)

Might even explain why she seized up and collapsed into the van on
9/11 day.......she just found out Trump was shellacking her in Ohio.

Almost as bad as Iowa in January.

I agree. Zelany is speculating. Hillary isn't writing off Ohio.

Hillary is leaving Kasich in charge of her campaign here in Ohio.
