Republicans keep a veto-proof supermajority with 60 House seats or 20 Senate seats (three-fifths of each chamber). Democrats hold 34 House seats and need 40; they hold 9 Senate seats and need 14. The seats shown are the ones nearest that line in State Navigate's district forecast (Nov 2 run), listed from most to least favorable for Democrats; each card shows State Navigate's rating and the Democrat's chance of winning. Breaking the House line takes 6 of these 12 flips, and the Senate line takes 5 of these 8. The chance of breaking each line counts State Navigate's simulations in which Republicans fall below 60 House or 20 Senate seats; State Navigate's own "supermajority" figure uses two-thirds instead.
In each seat arc, seats run left to right: Democratic seats not tracked here, the tracked seats in forecast order, then Republican seats not tracked here. The dashed line marks the seat Democrats need to break the supermajority.
Results come from the Secretary of State's election-night feed; the Columbus and Akron issues come from Franklin's and Summit's own results. Seat colors show who is ahead; a solid color means every precinct has reported. Results are unofficial until certified, and provisional and late mail ballots are counted after election night.
Each card lists the questions the site should have on the ballot: weekly sales and Sunday sales, Sunday only, or separate beer and wine questions. A site is final only when every one of them has a result. Questions taken from ballot issue numbers are confirmed. Questions guessed from the permit classes say so on the card until they are checked against the ballot.
Status comes from the board's own "precincts reported" count where it prints one. Where a board doesn't separate absentee from Election Day votes, the card is marked "estimated" and compares the votes counted with the number of absentee ballots returned in that precinct. About a third of voters are expected to vote early or by mail, so a total near the absentee count means Election Day votes aren't in yet. Results are unofficial until the board certifies.
