Ohio elections

Ohio

Democratic Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher and former Republican congressman Rob Portman are battling for the seat opened by the retirement of three-term GOP Sen. George Voinovich. Democratic Gov. Ted Strickland, who's seeking a second term, is being challenged by Republican John Kasich. Both races are considered tossups, as are rematches of the 2008 contests for two of Ohio's 18 House seats, in the 1st and 15th districts. In the 16th District, Democrat John Boccieri faces a tough fight to win a second term. Obama won Ohio in 2008.
