Most Republican county in Ohio just flipped nine seats blue

On Tuesday, Nov. 7, Democrats delivered shattering victories in the Virginia and New Jersey elections, and nationwide brought the total of state legislative seats flipped from red to blue since Donald Trump was elected to 32.
A less touted, but no less impressive, story is how Democrats have been flipping county and municipal offices in unexpected places.
Going into this week, Democrats had already made gains this year in local races in Illinois, New Mexico, and Virginia. And on Tuesday, local Democrats scored big in Ohio.
One of the most telling signs of growing Democratic strength is the results of elections in Ohios Warren County.
