1. Ooooo that would be fucking sweet

[LisaL]

3. These results are early voting.

NT

[LisaL]

2. No.

They are releasing results of early voting first.

[krawhitham]

4. no

This happens every cycle in Ohio

[LisaL]

7. Yes, because early voting is released first.

NT

[asm128]

13. Every cycle like 2008 and 2012?

I'm pretty sure Obama won Ohio both years

[LisaL]

19. So clearly it happened in 2008 and 2012, only

then it stayed that way. Right now they are releasing early voting results, because OH counts that first.

5. Even if she narrowly loses OH, that's a good sign.

[Ms. Toad]

6. Remember, the first votes counted are absentee, which run heavily Democratic.

Voting was heavy. Summit County (Akron metro) had a higher turnout than 2022 - so that is good (it's a blue county).

But expect Ohio to turn redder as the night goes on.

8. OMG

I am stroking out is it possible!

[RealFloridaDem]

9. No...lol

[Xavier Breath]

10. If she were to win Ohio that would bode well for the midwest and it would probably be ballgame.

I'd love that but it's probably not likely.

[disappearingboy]

11. Don't get our hopes up like this.

I already got mine up, and now they're pretty well dashed. I was foolish enough to be cautiously optimistic.

[Jason1961]

12. If we take Ohio turn the TV off because it's over

But I highly doubt we take Ohio

[pstokely]

14. possible blue mirage

they're be some red mirages also

[Self Esteem]

15. Harris will not win Ohio. Early vote, which historically trends Democratic, is counted first there.

Democrats always lead early on here.

The question will be how much she loses Ohio by - not whether she'll win it.

[Dem4life1234]

16. God didn't Obama win it twice or so?

[LisaL]

21. And it's gone red since then.

Right now you are seeing blue mirage.

[irisblue]

22. Obama won Ohio in 2008 & 2012. Apricothellbeast won in 2016& 2020

The right wing GOPers gerrymandered the state and got very skilled at choking voting locations in Ohio.


Each county in Ohio gets 1 early voting location.
(2020 data)

Franklin Co/Columbus has nearly 860,000 registered voters.


Columbiana Co/East Palestine- where that train derailment was almost 2 yrs ago- has 64,000 & they get one early voting location, just like the more populated counties.

[FlyingPiggy]

17. That would be a SWEET surprise!! 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

[nycbos]

18. Way to early to tell

Probably not

[D_Master81]

20. Don't fall for it

I’ve learned how it goes. Every election I think it’s happening and then the day of vote comes in.
