Which offices can Ohio Democrats win in 2022 and beyond?

[Frenchrepublican]

In 2022 dems will have a hard time winning any statewide office as most of them won’t be open races, as for the Ohio legislature, Dems will remain in the minority for years to come as the few areas where they are gaining ground are already sending D legislators to the House

Sounds like the OH Dems are turning into the FL Dems.

No. Unlike the Fl Dems, OH Dems managed to re-elect their US Senator, in a state that is even more hostile no less. That counts for something

To be fair, if Nelson had faced a flawed candidate like Renacci he would still be a senator

[Frenchrepublican]

I don't think Ryan has the balls to challenge Portman in 2022.

I said Bold for a reason, but if Biden is above 50% approvals in OH, he is going to try

It’s difficult to imagine a scenario where a POTUS Biden would have a 50% approval Rae in Ohio considering that Biden would likely lose the state by a substantial margin and that over the past two decades midterms elections are generally horrible for the sitting president.

Kasich would’ve won if he ran and hadn’t burnt so many bridges with conservatives.

No he wouldn't

He would have won, had he been less vocally opposed to Trump he would have easily won the primary and then he would have nelsoned Brown in the general election, it would have been a wonderful thing if this socialist had been put into forced retirement.

None. Ohio is the new Missouri.

Missouri elected a Democrat in a statewide race last year...

The democrat you are referring was nominated by a D governor, fortunately Ohio dems won’t be able to steal any statewide office as Corday has lost

It passed under my radar but they flipped one of two state supreme court seats up for election this cycle (beating one incumbent 55-45 while losing to the other 45-55).

Yeah, but Supreme Court candidates are not running with a partisan label, most people are voting without having any information on the candidates in question, sometimes it can lead to weird situations, for example in 2018 the candidate who was backed by the democratic party, and who won statewide, lost Mahoning but won many counties in Western Ohio where Cordray barely won one third of the vote, the explanation is that the liberal candidate had a German name while the conservative one had a Italian name

There is certainly a fair bit more flexibility than in your average row office contest, but it's not a completely nonpartisan election anymore - the candidates advanced through Democratic and Republican primaries this year.

They have no party label after their name, so unless you are a very partisan / well-informed person you don't know who is the liberal candidate and who is the conservative one
