Survey USA Ohio: Obama + 1

In an election for Ohio's 18 vital electoral votes today, 10/09/12, one week after Buckeye voting began and 4 weeks till votes are counted, Barack Obama is at 45% to Mitt Romney's 44%, according to a SurveyUSA poll conducted for WCMH-TV, NBC4 in Columbus. Obama's advantage is within the survey's possible sources of error and may or may not be significant.



In an election for United States Senator from Ohio, Democrat Sherrod Brown defeats Republican Josh Mandel 42% to 38% today. White voters narrowly favor Mandel, the Republican. Brown's entire advantage comes from African Americans, who vote 6:1 for Brown, the Democrat. Brown leads in greater Cleveland, greater Columbus, and greater Toledo. Mandel leads in greater Cincinnati and greater Dayton.

I was sitting here with my head in my hands thinking about this post. Thinking: How can it be? All President Obama has done for the auto industry, it hardly seems possible he would lose Ohio. I will be so glad when Nov. 7th gets here!
