19. 'the two candidates are locked in a dead heat among Ohioans who have not yet voted'

It's important to note that Obama's lead comes from the early voting, which is a great testament to the work the Obama Team did in this area.

But as TIME mentions, Obama & Romney are tied in the current voting. So it could still be close, depending on what happens with the way the votes are counted etc. It's good to have room for error (eg. Republican fraud) so nothing should be taken for granted until the state is called for Obama on November 6.
