How Ohio will offer us early clues on election night

EAST PALESTINE, Ohio — The drive across the state line between Pennsylvania toward this Columbiana County town is bucolic; hills roll as the passenger drifts west away from the Appalachian Mountains, the farms are tidy, and three stark white crosses brace the state line in a cornfield.

There is no doubt that Columbiana County is going all-in for President Trump on Nov 3. Finding a Joe Biden supporter in this rural, red, working-class county is like finding a needle in a haystack. Trump signage, on the other hand, is epic. People don’t have just one — they have nine, along with at least two flags and a 4-foot-by-8-foot sign on the front porch.
