Talk:United States presidential elections in Ohio

Did Ohio vote for a national loser 9 times or 10 ?
The overall results table at the top says that Ohio voted for 10 national losers, but I count only 9, four before the GOP's founding in 1854 and five afterwards: [Republican Party founded 1854]
 * 1) 1824 (Henry Clay as a Democratic-Republican vs 3 other D-R’s)
 * 2) 1836 (Wm Henry Harrison, Whig)
 * 3) 1844 (Clay as a Whig)
 * 4) 1848 (Lewis Cass, D)
 * 1) 1856 (John C. Frémont, R)
 * 2) 1884 (James G. Blaine, R)
 * 3) 1892 (Benj. Harrison, inc. R)
 * 4) 1944 (Thos E. Dewey, R)
 * 5) 1960 (Richard M. Nixon, R)

Am I missing something, or is that table?

Ohio seems to have voted for 45 national winners, not 44
To double-check my surmise above that Ohio voted only 9 times, rather than 10, for national losers, I counted the times she voted for a national winner and came up with 45. So I have altered the template at top to 45 winners & 9 losers.

Here are the 45 elections in which I see that Ohio voted for the U.S. winner (interlined in brackets with the 9 votes for losers):
 * 1. Trump 2016
 * 2 & 3 Obama 2012 & 2008
 * 4 & 5. G.W. Bush 2004 & 2000
 * 6 & 7. Clinton 1996 & 1992
 * 8. G.H.W. Bush 1988
 * 9 & 10. Reagan 1984 & 1980
 * 11. Carter 1976
 * 12 & 13. Nixon 1972 & 1968
 * 14. LBJ 1964 [A = Nixon 1960]
 * 15 & 16. Eisenhower 1956 & 1952
 * 17. Truman 1948 [B = Dewey 1944]
 * 18, 19 & 20. FDR 1940, 1936 & 1932
 * 21. Hoover 1928
 * 22. Coolidge 1924
 * 23. Harding 1920
 * 24 & 25. Wilson 1916 & 1912
 * 26. Taft 1908
 * 27. T. Roosevelt 1904
 * 28 & 29. McKinley 1900 & 1896 [C = B. Harrison 1892]
 * 30. B. Harrison 1888 [D = Blaine 1884]
 * 31. Garfield 1880
 * 32. Hayes 1876
 * 33 & 34. Grant 1872 & 1868
 * 35 & 36. Lincoln 1864 & 1860 [E = Frémont 1856]

 * Your math seems right. In my defense, I did the articles for all 50 states at once, and there is much fodder for miscounts like these. bd2412  T 03:43, 4 April 2019 (UTC)
