Though I hope Biden loses the county and wins the election so we can stop with these bellwether picks. They used to talk about Missouri being one, too, but now it's not. Same with Ohio, IMO. But the trend is very favorable.

Ohio/Iowa/Missouri/Indiana seems to have slipped away from the Democrats, so I agree - not really thinking of them as bellwethers any longer.

So Trump’s homeboy Mikey captures the states children of the corn demographic.

2) It is located somewhat SW of Indianapolis on the western border of Indiana.
3) It is located about 1/3 of the way to St Louis from Indy.

So the networks will devote the next hour to those results, and specifically counties like this

Plus the whispered exit polls will already be available online. I think I'll pass on those
