OH-SEN: Renacci Wins Weak Plurality

[Oryxslayer]

Polls close shortly, giving this a bump to act as a discussion thread.

With the early vote plus ~1% of precincts, Renacci is up 46.7% to 31.9%. About the margin I would have expected.

The map looks strange though, with Gibbons doing well in the NW, Columbus, and SE with Renacci getting his margins from the more populous NE and traditionally very Republican SW.

Looks like your standard media market map  though.

We are getting some stuff in from the SW though, Renacci flipped Clermont making the map look nicer. Also the NW corner, but yeah, I'm having a hard time seeing Gibbons gain unless Cuyahoga or Franklin turns out a whole lot more new voters.

Renacci gets his call from AP/NYT.
