When someone says that several of the congressional districts in Ohio could possibly go to the Democratic candidate, we all take notice. When that someone is political scientist, Stuart Rothenberg, we put more stock in his opinion. Dayton Daily News has Rothenberg's opinion about Ohio's congressional districts. Here are some excerpts from the article:
Ask political scientist Stuart Rothenberg which Ohio congressional districts will be competitive this November, and he sounds a bit like a bingo announcer.
"Sixteen, 13, one, six, 15, 18," said Rothenberg of the political newsletter, The Rothenberg Report.
The numbers are districts across Ohio that host well-known incumbents such as Reps. Ralph Regula, R-Navarre, Deborah Pryce, R-Columbus, Bob Ney, R-Heath, and Steve Chabot, R-Cincinnati, as well as open seats vacated by Reps. Sherrod Brown, D-Avon, and Ted Strickland, D-Lisbon.
I suggest you read the rest of the article for more insight into Ohio political climate.
