Michigan Governor is looking really bad now, Wisconsin US Senate.
Would Ohio be considered a blue to red state or is it just a swing state?
oh, here's one thing to keep in mind from that Wikipedia article on the 2014 PA gubernatorial election
swing I think
Ohio is like purple.
but leaning reddish
Leans red.
"Corbett was considered vulnerable, as reflected in his low approval ratings. An August 2013 Franklin & Marshall College poll found that only 17% of voters thought Corbett was doing an "excellent" or "good" job, only 20% thought he deserved to be reelected, and 62% said the state was "off on the wrong track".[3] Politico called Corbett the most vulnerable incumbent governor in the United States,[4] The Washington Post ranked the election as the most likely for a party switch,[5] and the majority of election forecasters rated it "likely Democratic"."
hivemind
Because red state legislature.
basically, Tom Corbett was the Bruce Rauner of 2014
Who is this^
Oh.
Alright, lemme say something about the ratios
I think we all agree that Bruce Rauner is doomed, not that we really care
You're trying to beat Tom Wolf?
now, as I said, it's not guaranteed
In the primaries, there were 2.2 Democratic votes for each Republican vote
In the general, that was 1.2
easy win still.
1.2
there's nothing magical about politics. Rauner can win. Democrats can win Mississippi. Will they? Probably not
Illinois has always had shitty governors, I know that many governors got sent to prison for Shit they did.
Illinois is just a shitty state now
yeah, pretty easy win
@FLanon
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pennsylvania_gubernatorial_election,_2010
see if that ratio holds for 2010
Chicago runs it into the ground.
but it shows they have a major foothold in the primaries
>red Pittsburg
My dad is forced to work as an accountant for the state
lol yeah right
Youi need a Trump type of guy to get that.
And the GOP won't pick someone like that.
They're going to run
Saccone!
xD
Didn’t Rauner become Governor because the last Governor got in prison for some shit he did?
interestingly enough, in 2010, there were 857,142 votes in the GOP primary for the Governor race
in 2014, it dropped to 373,465
now that's because
1. There was also a Senate race in 2010 in PA
2. Tom Corbett apparently disappointed many PA Republicans after he got elected
In the primaries 2010, the ratio is 1.2 Dem votes for each R vote
@Rhodesiaboo I don't know.
