Just got home from work, have not had access to a TV all night. |
|
Switched on CNN, and I thought I heard that Obama had a pretty good lead in Ohio, but then Hillary somehow came back? Can someone sometime give me the Cliff's Notes on what happened?

1. I was watching local channels... |
|
..and Hillary had the lead as soon as the 'less than 1% of precints reporting' were reported. Edwards ran steady at 2%. For all of the night, it was around 60-40% for Clinton give or take a percentage point or two. I never saw Obama pull ahead although the breakdown by county shows him leading most big cities, with Clinton leading the rest of the state. They said Cincy was more Democratic than it used to be so that helped them overall and you saw more voters coming out for the Dems. A couple of times counties themselves flipflopped, but the state as a whole stayed steady. Hope that helps!

for Hillary due to talk radio hosts calling for it ?
Call it the Limbaugh effect.

3. In the precinct where I worked, I'd say about 25 |
|
out of 745 voters. Those were the ones who were vocal about their "strategy."
