I question that Ohio is Midwest.
We always vote early. We’re just not completely committed to a presidential vote yet. In every other race or issue I’m decided. I suspect that’s true of many people.
Agree on both counts. I kind of feel like Indiana is the beginning of the midwest.

Then what's the definition?
-
I consider Ohio to be Midwest.
A lot of western NY and PA is very similar culturally to the Midwest but I’d never say they were midwestern.
-
Well, Cleveland and Southeastern OH sure as heck isn’t the Midwest, and Cintucky is more southern.

Agree, Lufin. Pittsburgh is a. Curious mix of east coast and Appalachia. Northeast Ohio is much more like upstate NY. Southeast is also Appalachia. Cincinnati is the northernmost southern city.
And you know I say Cintucky with love, right? I mean, the skyline thing is pretty weird, and the Bengals are kinda geh, but otherwise I love the city.

Fun little bit of trivia, Pittsburgh is more east than Miami. They are essentially on the same Meridian, but part of Pittsburgh’s city limit is a little further east than Miami.

Uncommitted as in you are undecided on whom to vote for, or thinking of abstaining from a presidential vote entirely?
Not speaking for Mik, but personally for me it’s a question of abstaining. I generally don’t believe that there are many (if any) voters that are undecided about who to vote for if they do. I think the undecided are truly trying to decide whether to vote at all. And I think the campaigns are missing that huge distinction on both sides.
Which is why you need to get back out there with your posts onto the larger platforms! The world needs you in this most critical of elections.

This is a close election and every vote matters.
My primary argument for Trump, is that it increasingly looks like we may have a GOP majority in the Senate and that means Federal judges. The House will continue to be very close, so a lot of the funding stuff will ameliorate. The judiciary had too long of a run of Presidents appointing very liberal judges who view the Constitution as a suggestion. Time to reign some silliness back in.

Back to the OP, I would expect early and mail in voting to be down because a lot of people were still trying to isolate at this time in 2020.
