All eyes on Ohio's special election

Danny O'Connor of the Democratic Party and Troy Balderson of the Republican Party
All eyes have been on Ohio for the likely result of Tuesday's Congressional special, which the authorities currently say is too close to call.
Although, the Republican Party candidate is leading the Democratic Party candidate 50.2 - 49.3, the result has not been called.
The special election is one of the few elections across the United States on Tuesday, which the Democratic Party has been very busy raising funds to help its candidate for possibility of defeating the Republican candidate, in search for an early upset against the Republican Party, because no Democratic party candidate has won the district since 1980, according to reports.
The chart, before the election on Tuesday, showed that Danny O'Connor of the Democratic party was tied with the Republican Party candidate, Troy Balderson. The tight race propelled President Donald Trump to Ohio for a late hour campaign, to shore up the Republican Party for the need to retain the seat by the Republican Party, and thwart the Democratic Party using a Republican loss in the district to determine the outcome of the midterm election.
Already, Trump has called and congratulated the Republican Party candidate, though the result of the election has not been called. It is true that the Republican party candidate is leading the Democratic party candidate, it is still uncertain who the winner will be, when the result is eventually called.
The Democratic Party bigwigs will be watching the numbers in the Ohio election with prayers for God, ( if they believe in God), to put O'Connor on top. They will believe that no matter what happens with Balderson in the lead with few numbers, O'Connor has dramatically changed the Democratic party's fortune in the district.
The current score by the candidates has the Republican Party up amid serious struggle to defeat a Democratic Party candidate in a district that the Republican Party candidate had won in the past with little or no struggle at all, showing that the Republican Party has uphill task for the midterm election, to be able to retain the control of the Congress.
And this does not mean the Democratic Party has no work to do toward the midterm election. Ohio special election has shown that an election is not won by merely closing the gap between the incumbent party and the challenger. And see how Ohio has hold true to being a battleground state.
