Ohio could be Biden's best shot at keeping Trump from contesting the 2020 election
Typically, presidential elections are fought and won in the so-called tipping-point states — places such as Wisconsin or Pennsylvania that statisticians consider most likely to put one candidate or the other over the top in the Electoral College.
But with President Trump and his family signaling that he will refuse to concede a narrow defeat and will contest any result that is drawn out beyond Election Day — an unprecedented break from convention — some Democrats have begun insisting that Joe Biden can’t wait for the trickle of mail-in ballots from the usual Midwestern battlegrounds to eventually nudge him past 270 electoral votes.
To nip any disaster scenario in the bud, they say, Biden also needs to flip one or more “nail-in-the-coffin states” — that is, the ones that on election night itself could quickly and decisively prove that Trump has no remaining path to victory.
Ohio, the site of this year’s first presidential debate, could be Biden’s best option.
