Trump won it be a pretty decent margin in 2016, do you think it stays Republican or trends back to the Democrats?

I could see a decent swing and trend back towards Democrats, but Trump will probably carry it, barring 1980-esque results against him.

Trend or swing?

Trend, I have no idea.. it's a little too early to predict that until we get an idea of what the national PV will be.

Swing, probably D... it was one of the states that swung R the most and I don't know how much more R it can go (at least in the immediate short term), so I expect it'll probably come back a little bit, though I think Trump will still win it.  As large as OH's swing was though, I actually think IA was more impressive (R+15).

A key indicator of how Ohio goes are the Senate and Governor's races in 2018 (especially the Senate race). If Republicans win both (unlikely at this point, as Josh Mandel is a horrible candidate, but they are favored in the Governor's race), than Ohio could easily Swing further R. If they lose both (which is possible, if Sutton wins the nomination, or Cordray jumps in), Ohio could swing D, and maybe even flip depending on who the nominee is (especially if it's Sherrod Brown or Joe Biden)

It'll probably trend at least a bit D. Regression to the mean, and all that.

Wasn't Ohio more Republican than Texas in 2016?

too far out to say really, but I have a hunch it'll trend D (though not all the way back to its pre-'16 lean)

I think the final result will probably be R+2-4% (which is what the final pre-election day polls in 2016 predicted).

Ohio, like the other 49 states, will swing D.

There is usually  one state that swings to the losing party.

Close, but not quite
TX: 52-43
OH: 51-43
