DescriptionThirty states added jobs last month and 20 reported declines, the Labor Department said today, with some of the largest gains and losses occurring in battleground states that could determine the outcome of the presidential election.

Among August's biggest gainers were the swing states of Florida, which created 16,600 payroll jobs, and Arizona, which added 10,200. The losers list included politically pivotal Ohio, which shed 11,800 jobs, and Missouri, which dropped 5,500.
