Primary Could Hint at November Result

From Times Wire Reports

Voters in Ohio, a bellwether state that decided the 2004 presidential election, head to the polls today for a primary expected to foreshadow prospects for a national political upheaval in November.

North Carolina and Indiana also have primaries today -- including races for governor, Congress and district attorney in Durham County, N.C., where voters will decide the fate of the prosecutor in the Duke University rape case.

But it is in Ohio, where the Republican Party has been beset by scandal, that politicians will be looking for signs of voter dissatisfaction in today’s balloting.
