A majority of Ohioans very much dislike both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump; they feel their state is headed in the right direction but feel the country is off on the wrong track in a new Zogby Analytics online poll of 679 likely voters in Ohio, conducted 5/18/16 - 5/22/16. The following bullets relate to questions we asked about the general election and the candidates themselves. The margin of sampling error is +/-3.8%.
Under traditional circumstances, Ohio Governor John Kasich would be the Republican nominee this year. He’s successfully represented middle-class Americans for the past 22 years. He’s led on military reform and chaired two of the most vital committees in the House back when Congress could work with a president and get the job done, including the House Budget Committee which balanced the federal budget. And he’s governor of Ohio, the ultimate swing state, where he was reelected with 64% of the vote. There, he turned the state budget around from a deficit to a big surplus, and the Buckeye state has created hundreds of thousands of jobs under his watch.
I may have been wrong in the past about Donald Trump but I never quite got Ted Cruz as a candidate for President. He has had too short a tenure and too few friends in the Senate to be able to run credibly for President but for a while he was the supposed darling of "real conservatives". But then came Donald Trump and he stole any of the thunder Cruz supposedly had.
