Ohio Swing Voters Crave Obama

Alexi McCammond: “Ohio voters who have flipped between parties in past presidential elections and supported Donald Trump in 2016 now say their first choice in 2020 is… Barack Obama.”

“This is the biggest takeaway from an Engagious/Focus Pointe Global focus group I watched last week. The group included 12 swing voters, half of whom voted for Mitt Romney in 2012 and then flipped to Hillary Clinton in 2016, and half of whom went for Obama in 2012 and Trump in 2016.”

“Five of the six Obama/Trump voters would pick Obama if he could run again in 2020. Among the reasons: Obama is ‘more of a diplomatic person,’ as one participant put it; another said he’s ‘more intellectual.'”
