Political indexEach district profile includes a political index numberwhich represents the relative Republican/Democrat votingstrength in each district. While voting registration numbersmay provide some insight into the political leanings of adistrict, this index is constructed from the performance ofRepublican and Democrat candidates in recent elections inthe district.The political index used in the <strong>2012</strong> <strong>Ohio</strong> <strong>Election</strong> <strong>Guide</strong>was constructed from election results in three recentelections, including:• 2008 Presidential <strong>Election</strong>• 2010 <strong>Ohio</strong> Governor's <strong>Election</strong>• 2010 <strong>Ohio</strong> Attorney General's <strong>Election</strong>As with any political index, this number is simply anindicator of past performance. It alone does not predict theout<strong>com</strong>e of an election. Other factors that contribute to theout<strong>com</strong>es of elections are the popularity and position ofthe candidates, fundraising capabilities of the candidates,and performance at the top of the ticket. The index ishelpful, however, in determining the overall prospects forcandidates of either political party.District mapsPlease note that the maps used in OMA’s <strong>2012</strong> <strong>Ohio</strong><strong>Election</strong> <strong>Guide</strong> were prepared specifically for this publicationand are based on various publicly-available sources. Mapscorrespond to the new <strong>Ohio</strong> congressional, senate andhouse districts based upon the <strong>2012</strong> U.S. census. Thesemaps are intended as a general reference to the location ofelection districts in the State of <strong>Ohio</strong>. To find out the districtof a specific city or location, please contact your local Boardof <strong>Election</strong>s or the <strong>Ohio</strong> Secretary of State (www.sos.state.oh.us/).NOTES TO READERCandidate profilesThe candidate information contained in this <strong>Ohio</strong> <strong>Election</strong><strong>Guide</strong> was gathered by Hannah News Services, Inc.

METHODOLOGY DEMOGRAPHICSMethodology Used to Produce 2010 Census SummaryFile 1 (SF1) and 2006-2010 Census American CommunitySurvey (ACS)Estimates for U.S. Congressional and <strong>Ohio</strong> House and Senate Districts.June 1, <strong>2012</strong>(displayed on pages 192–197)Though the Census Bureau’s 2010 Summary File 1 (SF1) data and the 2006–2010 AmericanCommunity Survey (ACS) 1 provide relatively recent demographic and socioeconomic data, thosedata are not currently available for the <strong>2012</strong> U.S. Congressional and <strong>Ohio</strong>’s General Assemblydistricts. Therefore the Northern <strong>Ohio</strong> Data & Information Service (NODIS) estimated data for thedistricts based on aggregating census block and block group level data, and apportioning blockand block group level data for cases in which the block or block group is shared by more than onedistrict.The following notes provide more detail.1. The 2010 SF1 data were aggregated to the district levels. This provides the basic demographicsof households, population, race, age and gender. If a block was geographically divided bymore than one district the characteristics of the block were allocated to districts based onproportions from the equivalency files.2. The ACS data provides other demographic and socioeconomic data, such as in<strong>com</strong>e andeducational attainment data. The ACS Summary Files were used for estimating these data fordistricts. The data were aggregated using a <strong>com</strong>bination of whole counties, <strong>com</strong>munities, andcensus tract or block group data when such geographic units were wholly contained withina district and applying the block/split block proportions when such units are shared by morethan one district.3. ACS data are based on a sample. Using larger geographic levels when aggregatingsample data provides lower margins of error. Margins of error were calculated using themethodologies provided by the Census Bureau. 24. Since the ACS data we provide are estimated using portions of Census Bureau geographies,our estimates will differ slightly from data to be provided later by the Census Bureau.1 Census ACS 2006–2010 provides relatively recent estimates, but the sample size is much smaller than the long form 2000SF3 sample. The 5 years of ACS data provide a sample that is only about one half the size of the 2000 SF3 sample; thusestimates are subject to wider confidence intervals.2The margins of error were calculated using the "American Community Survey Multiyear Accuracy of the Data” availableat http://www.census.gov/acs/www/Downloads/data_documentation/Accuracy/MultiyearACSAccuracyofData2010.pdf.The medians were calculated using a modified version of the Public Use Micro Data’s median margin of error.190 — THE OHIO MANUFACTURERS’ ASSOCIATION


economic trends METHODOLOGYMethodology Used to Produce Economic TrendsFor U.S. Congressional, <strong>Ohio</strong> Senate, and <strong>Ohio</strong> House DistrictsJune 1, <strong>2012</strong>(displayed on pages 192–197)The economic trends were produced using the Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages(QCEW). The QCEW database is derived from <strong>com</strong>pany level data obtained for unemployment<strong>com</strong>pensation tax collection purposes. The Center for Economic Development in the UrbanCenter of the Maxine Goodman Levin College of Urban Affairs at Cleveland State Universitymaintains, manages, and edits a longitudinal QCEW database. The QCEW data contain <strong>com</strong>panies’address, county, industry classification, total employment, and total payroll for most <strong>com</strong>panieswith paid employees (by site location) in <strong>Ohio</strong>. The QCEW data has confidentiality restrictions thatprotect <strong>com</strong>panies’ information.The employment, number of establishments, and payroll totals for each district were producedfrom aggregated QCEW data. Addresses were geocoded and assigned census blocks wherepossible and blocks were assigned to districts. For the <strong>com</strong>panies for which addresses could notbe geocoded, counties, municipalities and zip codes were used to assign them to districts.The assignment process for districts was the following:1. Most <strong>com</strong>panies in the QCEW database were assigned a census block based on their address.These records were then assigned a district based on the census blocks in the district.2. For the records without a census block, the county was used to assign a district. If thecounty is <strong>com</strong>pletely within a district, the district was assigned based on the county. Thereare 49 counties <strong>com</strong>pletely within house districts, 69 counties are <strong>com</strong>pletely within senatedistricts, and 65 counties are <strong>com</strong>pletely within congressional districts.3. For those addresses not assigned by the previous methods, the <strong>com</strong>bination of counties,municipalities and zip codes were used to assign the district. If a county, city, and zip code<strong>com</strong>bination fell totally within one district, those records were assigned that district.In several cases, the totals in a senate district differ from the sum of its three housedistricts, since more counties are <strong>com</strong>pletely within a senate district than within a housedistrict — 69 counties versus 49. In these cases, all the data can be assigned to a senate or housedistrict based on the county alone and it is not necessary to use the other address <strong>com</strong>ponents.Less than 3% of employment in any year is not assigned a district. This occurs when anemployee worked in more than one county and, therefore, was not assigned to any single countyand county was used to assign a district. Also, a limited number of records had no or invalid dataon addresses, municipalities, counties, and zip codes and thus were not assigned to a district.<strong>2012</strong> OHIO ELECTION GUIDE — 191
