Ohio hates the Orange Man
snip:
-One thing that may not be helping the Republican brand in Ohio is how incredibly unpopular John Boehner is. Only 20% of voters in the state approve of the job he's doing to 59% who disapprove, and even with GOP voters he's at just 37/34. Sherrod Brown with a 46/36 approval rating is easily the state's more popular Senator- Rob Portman comes in at 29/39. Those numbers for Portman are almost identical to 26/34 when we looked at the state in April- whether it's because of his support for gay marriage or his opposition to expanded background checks Portman is not in a great position right now.

Trends look promising. Hopefully Ohioans can overcome the voting disenfranchisement crap that has gotten the GOP this far.
