john was breaking them down. rural richland county right now, a democrat ahead. morrow county, huge republican county.n each case. so that does not necessarily mean where we're going at all. but what do you make of the early results. >> they county. i've been hearing from the campaign. they count the early and absentee votes first. one thick that is true about politics in a lot of places, especially in ohio, democrats vote early and absentee and republicans vote election day. some of these early results are going to be the early vote totals that will look great for democrats. then the election day votes will roll in. and the race will tighten up. i don't know if the republican is going to win. but that's what you're seeing in the early numbers. >> would you agree with that analysis? >> i think that's right which is why democrats need to tamp down the enthusiasm. but, again, the fact that we're even talking about this, i do think is overall a win for democrats. because we shouldn't even be talking about this. i've also been hearing from the campaign democratic organizers who have been knocking on doors
