As Ohio Went, So Went the Nation!

Like you, we've been off reading the news, sharing the links and the joy! 

Amy Acton and her running mate David Pepper are now governor and lieutenant governor elect. Sherrod Brown is headed back to the US Senate in January. And EIGHT Ohio Representatives will be going to the US House! That's eight, a majority of the 15-member delegation that GOP gerrymanderers thought they'd cut to three.

From January 1, the new Ohio General Assembly will still have GOP majorities in both houses, but it will no longer have a GOP super-majority that can override Governor Acton's veto of bad bills! Democrats also elected both judges that we ran for State Supreme Court, as well state treasurer, attorney general and secretary of state. 

Frank LaRose was the lone Republican to remain in the executive, come January, as auditor. As a farewell to his current office, he's presented a very easy to use reporting page for the results. They're still counting, so results are still unofficial. But the numbers are updated every few minutes. You'll find them, race by race, in the task bar right above the photo. Enjoy!
