Polls in Ohio, one of the key swing states in this year`s presidential election shows a virtual tie between Donald Trump and HIllary Clinton.
The RealClearPolitics average of polls which were conducted between June 30- July 24 shows Clinton with a 0.8% advantage.
RCP Average (June 30-July 24)
Hillary Clinton 42.6%
Donald Trump 41.8%
This is based on the last 5 reliable polls in states, incredibly 4 of these polls all show the two candidates tied with only one CBS News/YouGov showing Clinton up by 4 points.
Barack Obama won Ohio for the democrats in 2008 and 2012 and prior to that George W Bush was victorious in the state in 2000 and 2004.
Although it is a relatively sparsely populated state it is always highly contested and it will be interesting to see the result this time around.
