the djbc happy hour

Tonight on the DJBC Happy Hour:
- COVID-19 is getting worse. Ohio is on the road for yet another shutdown as cases are getting worse.
- The Sad State of the Wolverines: Fresh off their first loss to the Hoosiers in 33 years, the Wolverines have their WORST Home Loss in 85 years Under the Lights against a Wisconsin team that hadn't played for 22 days (due to a COVID outbreak with the Badgers)
- Can Indiana knock off Ohio in Columbus for the first time in 33 years this Saturday?
- The Holidays are here, socially distant.
- Jack and Susan return with a very special guest.
- How would the show have celebrated if Maryland had knocked off Ohio (Remember: The Ohio/Maryland Football Game was canceled due to a COVID-19 Outbreak with the Maryland Football Team.)

Tonight on the Show, we have a NEW President-Elect!
Also on tonight's show - The Sad State of Michigan Football. Why we are DONE defending Jim Harbaugh and Don Brown after Michigan lost back-to-back games they should have won in blowout fashion.

Local Election Results:
- For the first time since 1996, Ron O'Brien will NOT be the Franklin County Prosecutor, as the six-term incumbent was ousted by former Judge G. Gary Tyack.
- School Levy Passed in Delaware, but NOT in Pickerington. Gahanna's school levy is "too close to call".
- The Ohio 16th Senate Seat between State Senator Stephanie Kunze (R-Hilliard) and challenger Crystal Lett (D-Columbus) is too close to call, as is the race for Pickaway County Sheriff.
- ALL of the Statehouse Rep Incumbents in Franklin County, as well as the occupants of the seats that cover Delaware, Knox, Licking, Coshocton, and Perry Counties, were all re-elected. Dontavius Jarrells is elected to the Ohio House 25th Seat, replacing the seat abandoned by outgoing Statehouse Representative and Trumpette, Benedictine Kennedy-Kent.
- ALL 16 Ohio U.S. House Representatives were re-elected, a first and last, due to Congressional Re-Districting set to take place in 2021.
- Issue 2 Passed, launching a Civilian Review Board in the City of Columbus.
- Issue 8 Passed in Grandview Heights.
- Issue 12, a Charter Amendment, Passed in Westerville.
- Issue 1 (Columbus) & Issue 10 (Grove City) both passed, allowing green energy initatives.

Election Milestones Across the Country:
- Georgia will have not one, but TWO Senate Run-Offs on January 5. Sen. David Perdue (R) vs. Jon Ossoff (D) and Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R) vs. Rev. Raphael Warnock (D), as neither candidate reached 50% of the Vote, per Georgia State Law. Deadline to Register for the Run-Off in Georgia is December 7.
- New York elected their first two openly gay black male Congressmen - Mondaire Jones (17th District) & Jamaal Bowman (16th District).
