Early results show Delaware County voters favoring tax levies while a transit sales tax trails
The 5AM Delaware team
If you voted Tuesday, here's where things stood early. The Columbus Dispatch reported that in the first batch of unofficial results, early voters appeared to favor the property-tax measures. A new sales tax measure to support Delaware County Transit wasn't doing as well. One of the levies is the Delaware Area Career Center's renewal and decrease of a levy it has had since voters first approved it in 2001.

USA TODAY's live results page tracked far more than levies. It also listed the 4th and 12th Congressional Districts, a county commissioner seat and Sunbury's charter amendment on a data center.
