This is a “Special Election” to fill a vacated seat by a Congressman that resigned. The winner will serve for about four months and then he will have to run for re-election come November 6th, 2018.
Bottom line is: while the media & the Democrats are howling how important this election is, it is not important at all, looking at the big picture. These two gents will be facing each other come November, competing for a full term House seat.
You must also understand that a scheduled regular election is a completely different game. Many more voters will turn out to vote in November, then will turn out today in this “Special Election”. Thus, the Republicans will hold this seat long term whether they win tomorrow or in November. They may not win tomorrow, but, they will win for sure in November for this is truly a heavy Republican district.
However, Voters in the Ohio, 12thCD...turn out and, today and cast your votes for Republican, Troy Balderson. support POTUS, Doanld J. Trump, VP, Mike Pence, Congressman, Jim Jordan and....MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN...(MAGA)!!!
Thanks for the explanation!
