Wow! A complete sweep. Although the polling sample has 8% more Democrats voting than GOP (sounds about right). Also, the poll found that 35% of respondents are voting a straight DEM ticket. The last poll was 9/24/06.

Lets just hope that the rain holds off for election day.

What a crazy night it was at the Ohio Democratic Party executive committee meeting to decide the new chairman. Everything started out normal with about 130 of the 137 members in attendance to help pick a new chairman. Everyone had taken their seats and had received vote cards.

Then total chaos! Bill DeMora motions to have a roll call vote instead of a secret paper ballot. It was seconded. There was a call from interim chairwoman Rhine McLin, Dayton Mayor, for all in favor say yes and all opposed say no. The yes's easily carried to all in the room, but wait Chairwoman McLin says the No's carried the vote. DeMora calls for an appeal of the chairwoman's rule and loses in another bizarre voice vote. Everyone is looking around trying to figure out what the hell is going on. Read More

I have a very well placed source that Sherrod Brown has been making phone calls tonight telling key supporters he is in the race for the Ohio US Senate seat. Expect an announcement very soon.

I would think this means Hackett is going to run for something else. While the netroots may love Hackett, as I do, there is no competition with Ohio primary voters. Brown has always been a favorite of Ohio Democrats and he has finally decided to take the next step. Where will Hackett go? A run for AG, maybe a rematch with Schmidt?
