Ohio follows the trends we're seeing in other swing states. Newly registered young people turnout to vote at a higher rate than previously registered young people. We need to fill the leaking hole by getting the people who aren't registered (more than 40,000,000 nationwide) registered to vote.
Big thanks to the team for pumping and organizing the data!

Getting young people registered to vote is a good thing, but why does it need to be “left leaning” people? Can’t they vote for whoever they want? Your bias is clearly showing
Rule 7: “Post titles must **describe the data plainly** [without using sensationalized headlines](https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful/wiki/rules/rule7).”
My takeaway: Looks like Ohio should have open primaries. Who wants to register with a party now-a-days? (an ever shrinking number according to polls)
