Ohio Bellwether Status Revoked


That's right. Ohio is no longer a bellwether state.
Ohioans unabashed racism--many of Ohio voters said they wouldn't vote for "a black"--no longer reflects America.
Most of us in these united states have moved past such entrenched bigotry. Therefore, ohio's longstanding status as a barometer for who wins the presidency is hereby revoked. This is the new world of politics.
So that kills the argument put forth by many clinton supporters that Clinton's Ohio win means she has to be the democratic nominee. Well, Ohio isn't an indicator of anything anymore. And that takes care of that.
