A STARK COUNTY POLITICAL REPORT EXCLUSIVE
No wonder U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown was re-elected on November 6, 2018.
All one has to see is the result of the Renacci/Brown match up in North Canton, Ohio; a bastion of Republican electoral heft in all of Stark County.
Indeed! Remarkable!!!
How much did Renacci (whose wife Heidi, as far as the SCRP knows, works for Congressman Jim Renacci) in Matthews home precinct: 34 votes.
If Renacci can merely "break even" in North Canton 1B, he wins the "overall" North Canton vote.
It could be that Matthews did not feel comfortable "knocking on doors" for Renacci in 1B given he is Stark BOEl director.
The SCPR doubts that but it could be.
North Canton (being the bastion of Stark County Republicanism that it is) is the home of Stark Board of Elections members Frank C. Braden (a former county chairman) and William S. Cline.
They do not have "political egg" on their faces. For in their precincts Renacci won.
But overall North Canton, they do.
While probably less "liberal" Democrat Richard Cordray was getting drubbed in North Canton, Sherrod Brown comes away with a narrow victory.
You want to know how those prognosticators "project" a winner even when a given candidates "raw vote total" might show the candidate behind in an overall sense (in this case all of Ohio)?
Well, just look at the North Canton numbers!
That's it folks.
Over the next couple of weeks, the SCPR will be slicing and dicing the Stark County November 6, 2018 general elections numbers in order to provide Stark Countians with evidence that Stark County is turning solidly red, if not already there while the Stark County Democratic Party leadership (Sam Ferruccio, chairman) sit on their haunches.
