I mean I'm no Trump fan, but Ohio is also notoriously a swing state. Not sure it's remotely fair or relevant to talk about a fluctuating margin of voters as characterizing a state.

Unfortunately it hasn't been much of a swing state since the orange man came on the scene. Not to say that Ohio deserved this though.

It would take a lot more calls to random.randint(0, 1) than that for me to think something was wrong. Especially since we're actually talking about values that rarely go outside 0.4 and 0.6.

Ohio is not a swing state.
