With 100 percent of precincts reporting, Ohio's 12th congressional district is too close to call.
Republican Troy Balderson has 101,566 votes, and Democrat Danny O'Connor has 99,800. Green Party candidate Joe Manchik is a distant third, with 1,127 votes. MSNBC's Steve Kornacki reports that 3,435 provisional ballots were cast, but the Ohio secretary of state's website says provisional ballots aren't touched until at least 10 days after an election.
