Election Day 2016
from Bostonred Hosted by bostonred
Three Republicans in recent history - Mitt Romney in 2012, George H.W. Bush in 1992 and Gerald Ford in 1976 - won the combined vote in Ohio's 87 other counties but lost the state because of how soundly they were defeated in Cuyahoga County.Last time around, Barack Obama defeated Romney in Cuyahoga County, 447,273 votes to 190,660 (69.4 percent to 29.6 percent). Obama's win in Cuyahoga County more than offset Romney's 90,341-vote lead in the 87 other counties.. Ohio has voted with the national winner for 13 straight elections, starting with Lyndon Johnson in 1964.Cleveland.com
