Yes sorry perhaps I misunderstood what they meant about state offices (was thinking state reps). The governor office has always confused me honestly, I believe there's a lot of "fiscal conservatives" in metro zones that showed up for Kasich and Dewine, and there plenty of trump-cult voters littered through the suburbs now... but I question if Ohio will continue embracing "MAGA conservatives" going forward. Vance may provide the argument that they will, but the mask is all the way off now post-roe. If Trump's not on the ballot we may see yet another shift.

It's hard to say, I think we need to do better getting people in metro areas out to vote
