Ohio Election Results

Ohio voters can boast that they have been particularly adept at picking the winning presidential candidate. Since 1944, in every race but one – the 1960 contest between Richard Nixon and John F. Kennedy – Ohioans have chosen the winner. After picking Barack Obama in 2008 and 2012, they voted for Donald Trump over Hillary Clinton by eight points in 2016. This time, President Trump has won in Ohio again. Read more

While Ohio was not initially considered a battleground state this year, polls in the last month showed the race between President Trump and Joseph R. Biden Jr. had tightened.

In the First Congressional District, Representative Steve Chabot, a Cincinnati Republican, won one of the most competitive races of his career against his Democratic opponent, Kate Schroder, a health industry executive. Access to health care has been a focus in the race as Ms. Schroder pushed for an expansion of the Affordable Care Act. — KATHLEEN GRAY Read less
