We are only four days away from the big day, Election Day, and in 2010 Ohio sits right in the middle of many key votes. Voters in Ohio will be electing a Senator as well as a Governor this year. For the seat in the Senate, Ohio will decide amongst Democrat, Lee Fisher, or Republican, Rob Portman. For the Office of Governor the candidates are Democrat, Ted Strickland, and Republican, John Kasich. Both races are close, however, one is much closer than the other.

The race for the election for the Senate seat in Ohio is close, but seems to be favored towards Portman. A poll done today by SurveyUSA indicated that Portman led Fisher 52-37. A Quinnipiac poll also indicate,d two days ago, similar numbers with Portman over Fisher 53-36. According to Polls going all the way back to June, Portman has had a sizable lead.

The Election for the next Governor of Ohio, however, is extremely close. Having said this, recent polls have been showing a slight edge for Republican candidate, John Kasich. In fact two fairly reliable polls were released today showing this. An election poll performed by Rasmussen Reports showed Kasich leading Strictland 48-44, while a separate poll by Survey USA indicated that Kasich was leading Strictland 49-44. This race has been neck to neck going all the way back to March.

A lot can happen in the next few days, however, the race for Governor remains much more a question mark than that for the Senate seat. Make sure you get out their and vote on Tuesday!
