Saturday

which was a terrific Democratic year nationwide. We haven't won any statewide races in Ohio since 2006 except for Obama's two victories in 2008 and 2012, and Brown's victories in 2012 and 2018. Trump won by 8 in 2016, 8 in 2020, and 11 in 2024. Frankly him being down by 1 is a horrible showing for him. I would think virtually any other GOP candidate would be up by at least decent single digits.
