The earlier thread is over here:

[lynch03]

1. what's going on, who do the results favor??

[proud patriot]

2. Thanks ncrainbowgrrl

:hug:

[ncrainbowgrrl]

47. No problem.

If I wasn't here, I'd be biting my nails offline, so I'm more than happy to help out here!
:hug:

[LSparkle]

3. Schmidt refuses to leave polling place?????? WTF??????

Every single time I've voted in my life there's been a sign saying "No electioneering beyond this point" and NO CANDIDATE would be allowed within that radius.

Jean Schmidt nail files ... makes me wanna puke!

[wakeme2008]

8. where did you get that from and

I think it is "files nails" but I could be wrong :)

[GeorgeBushytail]

15. I think it's "files teeth"

[babylonsister]

16. Here:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x4246421

[LSparkle]

She was giving out "Jean Schmidt nail files" as freebies

Oh isn't that cute -- for all those nice Thug ladies who like to keep their nails neat and tidy.....

[Rufus T. Firefly]

Well, she's an Ohio Republican.

Maybe her supporters will need the files to get out of jail after they're convicted of corruption charges.

[Cocoa]

12. does she keep trying to get back in line?

[Mz Pip]

30. Nail files???

That is truly bizarre. Who the hell would think a nail file is an incentive to vote for someone?? A coupon for pizza, maybe, but a friggin nail file? Have we gone insane? People are actually voting for this lunatic??

Mz Pip
:dem:

[Zen Democrat]

51. Emery boards are an old political giveaway.

They are cheap. Candidates put their name on them. People look at them when they are filing their nails.

When I was a kid there was a County Commissioner here named "Squatty Lyons" and Squatty gave out emery boards at every election. We always had a stack of Squatty's files. And I've remembered his name all these years -- so I guess it works.

[Mz Pip]

56. I want pizza

I don't need a friggin nail file! Give me a pizza!

Mz Pip
:dem:

[marbuc]

78. with a name like Squatty

how could one forget?

[Rainscents]

34. I heard that too... Sounds like, she is trying to buy votes???

[LSparkle]

57. Or something to help future felons escape from prison?

Very strange promo item, IMHO.

[FreedomAngel82]

88. Exactly

Same here. There are signs on the front door before you enter with all the rules.

[terrya]

4. What's the percentage of votes counted now?

[shraby]

14. The figures for Clermont are all

early voting figures...what gives with that?

[usregimechange]

17. Bush got 62,949 votes from Clermont Co. Kerry 25,887 that is

That is 37,000 votes negative. Clermont will be bad news but if it is better than 2004 it is still possible.

[Windy]

29. Clermont is typically very red but Hackett is from Batavia

Which is in clermont co. and is the county seat.

31. I appreciate this so much, but I am afraid to hope.

I don't mean to rain on anyone's parade. And I'm in MD, so what does my opinion matter? In 04 I was so sure Kerry would win that I cried out of shock as much as fear & disappointment.

'K, I'm taking my little cheer party and my diet coke and i'm getting out of here.

GO HACKETT!

[longship]

44. Well, we may as well all go home, then?

I think not.

[bertha katzenengel]

[Donailin]

66. Marylander here

and I'm hoping and praying and not moving an inch, and I will expect the best, but every time I do that. . .

[bertha katzenengel]

87. Hope is all we have, Donailin.

After all the hard work everyone has done in this tiny election, hope is all there is now. Prayer too, if one believes that way. More power to you.

You're talking to a woman who turned off game six of the 02 World Series because she was SURE the Angels were losing because SHE was watching . . . :eyes:

Like I said: GO HACKETT!

[ribrepin]

100. Know where you are coming from

I shed tears too on November 2. I thought everybody else saw what I did.

[BlueWolff]

50. WOW I am so nervous I have a good feeling though!

[GeorgeBushytail]

55. Somber Freeper predicts 5% Schmidt win and some of their analysis

"It looks like a 5% margin for Schmidt, as an early guess. She is winning the GOP strongholds in the early vote of Warren and Clemont by about 10%, winning by about 5% in Hamilton with a few votes, and was slaughtered in Brown, losing by 14%, which means she will be slaughtered in all the rural counties (which don't have many votes, except for Scioto which has more, and is the most Dem (Schmidt might lose there by 20%). This is all very early guesses.

40. How big/small is Clermont Co? n/t

[proud patriot]

Josh on Majority report said clermont is more Rural

:hi:

[napi21]

60. Don't know, but on another thread this was posted.

Hamilton is the largest county in Dist. 2, but Warren and Clermont wre the worst (reddest).

[HootieMcBoob]

67. This should answer that question

from mydd: http://www.mydd.com/

I just went through and calculated the percentages of the total that each county represents, according to CNN's 2004 CD totals:

Adams- 4%
Brown- 7%
Clermont- 28%
Hamilton-40%
Pike-4%
Scioto-4%
Warren-13%

[snippy]

74. Big. In 2004 Portman got almost 30% of his total votes from Clermont Co.

Only Hamilton county had more votes cast in this district in 2004. http://election.sos.state.oh.us/results/DistrictDetail.aspx?race=CO

[Reciprocity]

85. Thanks all.

Why isn't C-SPAN showing this? It's not like they have anything else going on.
