Also on tonight's show - The Sad State of Michigan Football. Why we are DONE defending Jim Harbaugh and Don Brown after Michigan lost back-to-back games they should have won in blowout fashion.
Local Election Results:
- For the first time since 1996, Ron O'Brien will NOT be the Franklin County Prosecutor, as the six-term incumbent was ousted by former Judge G. Gary Tyack.
- School Levy Passed in Delaware, but NOT in Pickerington. Gahanna's school levy is "too close to call".
- The Ohio 16th Senate Seat between State Senator Stephanie Kunze (R-Hilliard) and challenger Crystal Lett (D-Columbus) is too close to call, as is the race for Pickaway County Sheriff.
- ALL of the Statehouse Rep Incumbents in Franklin County, as well as the occupants of the seats that cover Delaware, Knox, Licking, Coshocton, and Perry Counties, were all re-elected. Dontavius Jarrells is elected to the Ohio House 25th Seat, replacing the seat abandoned by outgoing Statehouse Representative and Trumpette, Benedictine Kennedy-Kent.
- ALL 16 Ohio U.S. House Representatives were re-elected, a first and last, due to Congressional Re-Districting set to take place in 2021.
