Greg Knox of Knox Machinery north of Cincinnati is looking forward to Jan. 20. For him, the biggest issues are taxes and trade: he sells highly automated machine tools, and he says over the years, a lot of his would-be customers, manufacturers, have suffered due to competition from Asia. He employs about 50 people, and says he’s counting on Trump to even the playing field for American manufacturers by strong-arming China on currency issues, and raising tariffs on imports. He’s most excited about the tax cuts: Trump has proposed cutting business taxes from 35 to 15 percent, which he says would allow him to hire more.

But just up I-75, in Dayton’s quiet south suburbs, Diana Rangel and her husband both run their own businesses as independent contractors: she’s a private Spanish tutor, he does roofing, and they’re both Mexican-American U.S. citizens. She voted for Clinton, partly because she’s really worried about Obamacare, which covers them and their kids. She makes more than $60 an hour now as an independent contractor, he makes more than $20, but if they lose health care, one of them might have to go work for someone, and she says the jobs they could get pay a lot less.

She’s also scared about how the racial climate has changed: since the election her daughter has been harassed at school, and her husband has been asked about his immigration status on jobs.
