Ohio Issue Two By County

Holy hell, I knew I lived in the most Republican part of Ohio, but this is crazy.  Six counties out of 88 voted yes on Issue 2, Holmes County (Amishland, and ridiculously conservative-56% for, 44% against), Delaware (54-46) and Warren County (52-48) which are the richest suburbs of Columbus and Cincinnati, respectively, and Miami (50.1-49.9), Shelby (53-47) and Mercer County (55-45).  Shelby and Mercer Counties are each populated by a sizable population of German Catholic farmers, and Miami County is just run by the Republican Party.  Either way, most of these counties went at least 65% for John McCain, so this was obviously a major loser for the Republican Party.  Well played, Kasich.
