Buckeye Biden!

Biden wins Ohio.
The long awaited Ohio primary was done by mail-in ballot. Once again, Joe Biden beats the former Democratic candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) in a blowout despite the noise.

Biden and Donald J. Trump are pretty much sidelined from campaigning due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Over 60,000 Americans died and there's 29 million Americans out of work. We have official surpassed 1 million confirmed cases of the coronavirus.

I think we have 1.6 million confirmed cases and we're well on our way to 100,000 deaths due to the coronavirus.

Gov. Mike DeWine's controversial move to suspend March 17 elections was a gift for the struggling Sanders. He was hoping to keep the campaign going despite his brutal defeats on Super Tuesday as well as the Washington, Florida, Michigan, Idaho and Illinois primaries.
Ohio became the first state in the nation to do mail-in and drop off ballots.
DeWine faced intense scrutiny from Democrats who felt that he was working on behalf of Republicans.

Regardless of the tricks, Biden managed to blow out Sanders in this state. Biden won overwhelmingly with 75% against Sanders 15% and the remaining got 10%.

The next challenge is how is Ohioans and every other state going to vote now that the COVID-19 kind of fucked up the status quo. Folks can't wait in line for hours to vote anymore. The Wisconsin primary showed how bad that idea was.

The Republicans figured that out when they forced Wisconsinites to vote in the rain and risk catching the coronavirus.

Trump needs Ohio in the race. The state went to Trump in 2016 and it's likely to swing in his direction.

Donald J. Trump won the Ohio Republican Primary by default. He already has the necessary delegates to become the nominee designate.
