OH Update...
...
Bush wins Lake County 51%/49%. This is closer than in 2000, but voter turnout increased 20%, so the jury is still out on how much the net gain or loss is.

Seneca County: With 37% of the precincts reporting, Bush is up 6% over his 2000 results in this small rural county.

In the reporting Ohio Valley counties, while returns still early, Bush has increased his margin of victory by 2.08%

Erie County (West): With 43% of the precincts reporting Bush is up 9% over 2000 results. This is huge even in this small rural county.

Crawford County (West): Up over 5% for Bush over 2000 with 22% of the precincts reporting in this small rural county.

Bush holding steady in Central Ohio...currently winning 57.24% (58.87 in 2000).

Northeast: Bush is still up 7.68% relative to his 2000 percentage in this heavily Democratic area.

West Central Ohio: 3.34% ahead in Allen (relative to 2000)
1.66% ahead in Franklin (relative to 2000)

0.68% ahead in Logan (relative to 2000)

2.83% ahead in Morrow Allen County (relative to 2000) (north central Ohio) is the only one close to completed, with 88% of the precints in. The total turnout is about 95% of last years there.

Early signs look good in NE Ohio
So far, Bush is doing 6.36% better than he did in 2000 there. Things are still early, but this is a good sign.

Note that Kerry must improve his margins in NE OH to win this election.
