Lorain County fuels Trump upset in tight presidential vote
Lorain County backed Donald Trump in a stunning night, a rare GOP win since 1984 amid economic decline. The county faces job losses, shrinking median income, and trade policy questions as nationwide markets react to the presidential result. Voters also approved school bonds and health district tax measures while several county tax issues failed. Elyria adds new schools and infrastructure as voters back bonds and tax changes.
