Ohio 2nd Congressional District -- Primary Results

ChannelCincinnati.com ^

[Steve_Stifler]

Didn't see a thread started for tonight's special election results. This is to fill the seat vacated by Rob Portman when he became the US trade ambassador.

[Steve_Stifler]

With 0% of precincts reporting, Brinkman leads with 32% of the vote, followed by McEwen, Schmidt and DeWine in fourth.

If anyone has a better election results link, please share it.

[Diago]

I hope the good candidates don't split the vote and let DeWine slip in. Any predictions while we await results?

[Steve_Stifler]

Everyone on this website seems to have their own prediction. With a special election primary, it all depends on which candidate can get his/her core supporters to the polls. The buzz around town is that DeWine has been tanking in the polls, but he has the advantage of name recognition which may save him in the end. Seems like with an 11-candidate field, a candidate will need only about 35% of the vote to win. It should be interesting at least.

[wdkeller]

Good! I was looking for election results. Been fasting and praying all day DeWeenie would go down in flames.

[NeoCaveman]

Any predictions while we await results?

I predict the winner wins with about 30% of the vote.

It might be McEwen, it might be Brinkman, it might be Dewiner.

[Paleo Conservative]

Are these absentee votes?

[NeoCaveman]

Thanks for starting this thread. I'm glad to finally have a link to election results.

[njackson22]

Who is most conservative? Who do we want to win?

I'm from Ohio.

[NeoCaveman]

Now we are up to 3% of precincts reporting.

McEwen 29%
Brinkman 26%
Schmidt 19%
Dewine 15%

[Dan from Michigan]

So far so good - but it depends which counties are in.

If Hamilton isn't in yet - GREAT. If it is, not so great unless Brinkman does well outside his district as well.

[NeoCaveman]

Who is most conservative? Who do we want to win? I'm from Ohio.

Most of us are for Brinkman, some of us are for Schmidt, others are for McEwen and almost all of us are anti-Dewine.

[njackson22]

I am with you, we already are stuck with one Dewine

[NeoCaveman]

So far so good - but it depends which counties are in.

Exactly.

Brinkman and Dewine are from Hamilton county. Schmidt is from Claremont county IIRC, and McEwen has represented some of the other counties before. This could be a highly regional race.

[Paleo Conservative]

Dewine 15%

Maybe he'll be Dewhining to his father.

[Armedanddangerous]

If Dewine loses tonight, will his daddy realize why it was?

[NeoCaveman]

If Hamilton isn't in yet - GREAT. If it is, not so great unless Brinkman does well outside his district as well.

IF I had to guess. I'd guess Hamilton is not in as it's a bigger county. I could be wrong.

[Steve_Stifler]

Hamilton County always seems to report results quicker than the ring counties, so if I had to guess, I'd say these were Hamilton County absentee and early precincts reporting.

[njackson22]

I like Brinkman because he put out HB 228 (He's 100 percent pro-life.

I read today in Columbus Dispatch that McEwan had James Dobson's support, and that Brinkman is against the death penalty.

It's hard to sort through info.

Either would be better than DeWine. I'll be fasting and praying that Dewine loses.

[wdkeller]

Yes, I will make sure he does.

[njackson22]

His cowardly role in the filibuster compromise. But he still thinks he is a hero.

Is there a conservative Who could challenge Daddy WeWine in 2006?

We need to get Voinovich and Dewine out of their. That's just my opinion

[NeoCaveman]

If Dewine loses tonight, will his daddy realize why it was?

Dewine's daddy's actions got me to contribute to Brinkman.

For some humor, here is a great parody site patdewine.blogspot.com

EARLY RESULTS - Clermont County ONLY

Jean Schmidt 3093 41.71%
Bob McEwen 1567 21.13%
Tom Brinkman, Jr. 1339 18.06%
Pat DeWine 883 11.91%

[wdkeller]

Where did you get data?

[NeoCaveman]

Not suprising. That is her home county.

It's early but I'm beginning to suspect that Dobson put McEwen over the top.

[Dan from Michigan]

WARREN COUNTY - SO FAR

TOM BRINKMAN, JR. 797 18.35
PAT DEWINE 556 12.80
BOB MCEWEN 1,641 37.78

[wdkeller]

There was some talk of getting John Kaish (did I spell that right?) of Fox New's "Heartland" to run.

Clermont County Elections

[Dan from Michigan]

Looks very good for McEwen considering it looks like Brinkman and Schmidt's numbers seem topheavy(Hamilton and Clermont). I really underestimated how influential his Washington Support (Dobson, etc) helped him.

I hope McEwen is more fiscally responsible with his checks this time.

Pat DeWine's toast.

[Dan from Michigan]

BROWN COUNTY

TOM BRINKMAN, JR. 190 15.20

[NeoCaveman]

We are over here.

[Dan from Michigan]

I can't find Pike, Scioto, and Adams County results.

[njackson22]

That would be good, I like him

[Steve_Stifler]

It would be nice if the Democrats would be their usual idiot selves and nominate Sanders instead of Hackett.

[urbanrepublican]

Thanks

Sorry, I didn't see your post.

[Dan from Michigan]

Hamilton County elections site

Reports little from Hamilton County, mostly from Adams and Scioto
McEwen - 32%
Brinkman - 22
Schmidt 17
DeWine - 15

[Dan from Michigan]

Hackett scares me because he just got back from Iraq and claims to be pro-2a.

His best opponent would be DeWine, but DeWine isn't going anywhere.

[NeoCaveman]

Another link http://www.hamilton-co.org/boe/inputdata/Electionsresults/Final/2ndcongressional.pdf

It's a PDF file. It lines up right with your last results with 41 precincts reporting. It updates every once in a while.

[NeoCaveman]

Pat DeWine's toast.

Yup. Maybe his father will get the message.

[Dan from Michigan]

HAMILTON RESULTS ONLY(partial)

Brinkman 1319 - 36.36%

[Steve_Stifler]

DeWine getting 12.68% in Hamilton County -- OUCH!! That's gotta hurt!

[njackson22]

Thank God, Pat DeWine will lose.

[MrNatural]

Weren't there polls showing Pat DeWine leading in this race, before senator dad signed on for the great compromise?

[Dan from Michigan]

Off topic while we wait

Is there a Blackwell ping list? If so, please sign me up. DeWine in 4th will send a powerful message to RINO's throughout Ohio - - and particularly in Columbus.

[njackson22]

Amen,

I'm 100 percent behind Blackwell.

Rockinright has the ping list
