About United States presidential elections in Ohio in brief
Since 1803, Ohio has participated in every U.S. presidential election. Ohio is considered a swing state, being won by either the Democratic or Republican candidates from election to election. Since the advent of the duopoly two-party system, Democrats have won the presidency without winning Ohio only five times, in the elections noted above. The state has had five misses in the Presidential election, and it also had the longest perfect streak of any state, voting for the winning presidential candidate in each election from 1964 to 2016 — a streak that ended when Joe Biden won in 2020.
In the election of 1820, incumbent President James Monroe ran effectively unopposed, winning all eight of Ohio’s electoral votes and all electoral votes nationwide except one vote in New Hampshire.
