If you check the Atlas, will note Franklin (Columbus) voted for Kerry 2004, Gore 2000 (NPV winner EC loser), both Clintons, but before 1992 only Democrats LBJ 1964, FDR 1936-1940 (but not 1932), both Woodrow Wilson, and every D 1872-1892 (NPV losers in 1872, 1880, 1888, EC loser 1876). Per Burnham Presidential Ballots, D in 1868 (loser Horatio Seymour), 1864 (McClellan), North D 1860 (Douglas), D winners 1856-1852, Whigs 1848 back to 1836. Per Michael Dubin, Clay in 1832, Adams in 1828, Clay plurality in 1824. So, it has voted for losers Kerry, Nixon, Hoover 1932, Dewey 1944-1948, Hancock 1880, Greeley 1872, Seymour 1868, McClellan 1864, Douglas 1860.
Between 2004 and 2012, the D raw vote in Franklin rose 60,572, including a 2008-2012 increase of 11,664, with the D margin rising from 48,548 to 116,223 to 130,376. Franklin and the largely unnoticed D 2004-2012 raw vote gains in the 8 suburban Columbus counties are driving the D winning margin in Ohio -- Columbus rocks! Between 2004 and 2012, D raw number up statewide up 86,542, R down 198,331.
