We found this fascinating.
With four more days of early voting to go (including Monday) in Hamilton County, voters had requested 2,977 Democratic ballots and 2,972 Republican ballots. Yes, in a county that has proven to be reliably Republican, Democrats appear to be more energized.
Some might say it’s the Trump factor — scads of Democrats wanting to vote against Trump — but he’s not on the ballot in next month’s primary election, and neither are any Republican members of Congress who may vote the way he’d like them to.
No, we hope it has something to do with what’s on the county ballot.
