I said on another thread that I’ve been an Ohioan a long time, and there has never, ever been anything like a 10 point democrat edge like NBC is giving this poll.
At best, Ohio has been even. It’s been a swing state for forever with a conservative southwest and rural, balancing out the big cities/counties around Cleveland, Toledo, Columbus and Youngstown.
Proof of that is that Ohio currently has a republican Governor, Senate, House, Supreme Court, Sec State (elected position)
That would NEVER happen in a state with a 10 point advantage by democrats. Never.
I think we should use this to judge the accuracy of any state poll. Current voter registration is R 37 D 36 in Ohio
