Yeah, and he’s no good at polls, etc.
Awfully good when the returns are coming in though.
early voting from a democrat precints. Early also favors dems so don’t read anything into it..
It’s not a good sign of course, but it’s also not the end of the world.
Never mind about 100% turnout, how’d you like a very nice 200% turnout.?

This may sound racist but minorities also are in big cities because of the proximity to public services and public transit. Really not meant to be racist, just factual.
Nate Cohn of the NY Times said earlier today that shouldn’t read much into the early vote, it should favor the Dem by 2-1 and it does.
Agreed.
Agreed. It would strike me as whistling past the graveyard.
You are right. Even my Lake County went communist. DidN’t used to be that way. Probably because so many Chicago pukes moved to the burbs because they couldn’t take shitcago anymore. But they brought their voting habits with them. Sort of like New Jersey moving to NC.
As predicted, first returns have D up 2-1. Real Clear Politics have returns posted.
No, it just that Republicans didn’t show up, they will in Nov.
Bump!
Those Green votes could end up hurting the Democrat.
Or why the Dems poured 33 million into it....for 3 months only. But I suppose they believe that it would give O’Connor a leg up for the November election.
Blue wave?

The margin between O’Connor and Balderson is from Franklin and Richland Counties. Delaware County hasn’t reported yet
I’m not in Ohio, I live in Kansas but I tried to vote at lunch and there was such a long line I had to leave. I went after work and the line was wrapped around part of the building. I’ve never experienced this before and it scares the crap out of me. Hoping Kobach can pull it out!
election for unexpired term to replace rep who quit until start of January. November regular election is for 2 years starting January.
