This is very true. People act like it’s not but it is. The difference in a guy from Iowa and a guy from Georgia is not as big as people would believe.

Historically a lot of union labor there that swings the state blue sometimes.

Those days might be gone. Not many unions left and the Dems don’t talk much about labor anymore anyway.

Columbus is center left.

Most of the suburbs are Republican, and while more downtown and North of downtown are liberal.

Pretty accurate assessment in my opinion.
I’ve spent a fair amount of time in Columbus and dealt with people in Columbus on a daily basis for almost 30 years. First off, they are huge Buckeye fans so anything negative about tOSU doesn’t sit well. Any reaction from their current situation will come more from a fan perspective than a SJW one.
BTW, Columbus is a great city to spend time in.

OSU administration leans right, look at how they handled their “sit in” problem. Students and town have a slight left lean. It’s nothing like Austin or Portland or even baby progressive like Nashville, but they will probably go Dem in a presidential election.

Ginthner, the current mayor is a Dem, but not too bad.

I have a sister in Ohio that votes Democrat.
My mother calls her stupid and tells her to move out of the swing state.
I have an interesting family.

Not while I lived there. I left there in 2011 and haven't been back. I lived in Liberty Township not too far from there.

I’ve always heard that the Ohio state Michigan rivalry was the dumb poor right wing rednecks from Osu and the pretentious tree hugging socialists from Michigan

Ohio is full of baws in my experience. They’re pretty patriotic and put a lot of kids into the military.




My experience with individuals I've met are that non suburban Michigan, Ohio, and Pennsylvania are effectively the Yankee South, AKA Northern rednecks.

And I do not mean that in a Pejorative way.

No. He’s talking about Ohio State. SJW tried a sitin in the student union and administration told them to end it or be expelled.
