Franklin County, Ohio has been moving slowly left for a while now as the city of Columbus has grown. From 1968-1992 it voted GOP and it just started voting Democrat in 1996. From 1992-2000 neither candidate broke 50%. Kerry was the first Democrat to win a majority in the county since LBJ in 1964. Kerry even managed to do six points better than Gore, although half of that can be attributed to Nader. Without Nader, Gore likely would have taken a 51% majority in the county compared to Kerry's 54% in 2004.
