Amy Acton wins Ohio’s governor’s race.

Acton’s win moves Ohio’s governor’s office into Democratic hands, flipping a post Republicans held. Axios counts Ohio among five GOP-held governorships Democrats flipped, alongside Georgia, Iowa, Nevada and Texas. The Guardian describes Ohio as reliably Republican, which gives this result extra weight in a wider set of Democratic gains across major states. The paper framed those broader results as a repudiation of Trump, corruption in Washington and billionaires’ political influence.
