>>Wow. 50+ white men and every last one of them a Republican? That is a lot of racist, mysognist, bible-thumping, zeno-phobic, science denying bigoted [sic] all in one spot at one time! I couldn't find two here if I tried! How do you know for sure?

From the wikipedia link you posted:
As of March 23, 2011, there were a total of 56,202 registered voters in Hamilton Township, of which 18,266 (32.5%) were registered as Democrats, 10,402 (18.5%) were registered as Republicans and 27,508 (48.9%) were registered as Unaffiliated. There were 26 voters registered to other parties.[89]

In the 2012 presidential election, Democrat Barack Obama received 57.1% of the vote (23,434 cast), ahead of Republican Mitt Romney with 41.7% (17,114 votes), and other candidates with 1.2% (510 votes), among the 44,558 ballots cast by the township's 58,973 registered voters (3,500 ballots were spoiled), for a turnout of 75.6%.[90][91] In the 2008 presidential election, Democrat Barack Obama received 53.5% of the vote here (23,658 cast), ahead of Republican John McCain with 43.9% (19,422 votes) and other candidates with 1.5% (679 votes), among the 44,201 ballots cast by the township's 58,979 registered voters, for a turnout of 74.9%


So it appears that there are more registered Democrats than Republicans and Obama took the state. The most recent gubernatorial race ended with the republican on top, but clearly not for the presidency.

I couldn't find anything more recent, so I had to go with the source you provided.
