Are you ready for some election results football?
In case you didn't know, there are still 8 seats yet to be decided in the House of Representatives But in Ohio, the will of the people apparently takes a back seat to other pursuits:
Rep. Deborah Pryce (news, bio, voting record), a member of the House Republican leadership, is ahead in her central Ohio race by 3,536 votes. In the Columbus, Ohio-area, elections officials are delaying the count of more than 9,000 provisional ballots by one day so it doesn't disrupt the much-vaulted Ohio State-Michigan football game on Nov. 18.Elections officials in that district will start counting Nov. 19.
Last time I checked, today is only the 10th - and the game (which apparently is more important than the election) isn't until the 18th.
Hey, folks - what's wrong with starting today?
If you've never visited Columbus, you wouldn't understand. It seems that Buckeye Football is the only thing that matters in the capital city this time of year.
